ABCnews is carrying this feature about Venezuela's Gran Sabana, a weird geological park:

Venezuela's expansive Gran Sabana is an awe-inspiring landscape filled with towering prehistoric rock formations, dramatic waterfalls and unique species. Its rolling highlands span 8,645 acres across the southeast corner of Venezuela's Canaima National Park, the world's sixth-largest nature reserve.

Gran Sabana means great plain (or savanna) in Spanish, but the terrain's most famous feature is the 40 exotic flat-topped, cliff-edged mountains soaring above the lush grassland.

It's said to be the place that inspiried Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World which in turn inspiried Jurassic Park. It takes a week to get to hike to the best one, so I guess we'll just have to look at the pretty pictures. We have hike-crazy friends though, maybe they'll get a kick out of it...
