Last weekend hundreds of newspapers across the country dropped the comic strip Dilbert because of a racist rant by its author, Scott Adams. In a racist tirade on YouTube— which I will not link to because I will not give it more airings than it deserves— Adams called Black Americans a "hate group" and suggesting that White people should "get the hell away" from them. The company that syndicates Dilbert, Andrews McMeel Universal, severed ties with him over the matter. Book publisher Penguin Random House has dropped plans to publish a non-Dilbert related book by Adams (it has previously published two), and apparently his agent dropped him, too.

I was pretty sure wonders #1-2 should be the Fire Wave and a small arch I found slightly off trail. Then I spotted wonder #3 and, moments later, wonder #4. They are the Mustard Cliffs and Roast Beef Wash. Better yet, there's a slot canyon in them.
Interested? Intrigued? Hungry? Watch this video I recorded as I hiked it:
