Huntsville Picture of the Week--Walls of Jericho

Huntsville Picture of the Week--Part 5

Walls of Jericho

''Walls of Jericho''  was named for a bowl-shaped canyon of rock that shoots water out of holes and cracks in the rock wall during heavy rains. It is part of a 60,000-acre tract once owned by Texas oil baron Henry Lee Carter. When he died in 1977, the ''Walls of Jericho'' were sold and closed to visitors.
