There is another Garden of the Gods in Shawnee National Forest in southern Illinois; both deserve pages.

I agree, it is a great place for hiking, climbing and just plain viewing. Feldmann53 19:50, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
- FYI: The link above to GotG Wilderness gives me a Page Not Found error. Also, the x-ref to the Lanai article cited at the head of the article doesn't yield anything about a GotG, although I did find what you're referring to elsewhere: http://lanai.aloha-hawaii.com/tours/garden+of+the+gods/ .

[edit] Higher than 50 feet
The article says the formations are up to 50 feet high. I have visited this place and they are much taller than that. If you look at the first picture in the article you can see the formations are towering over trees that are probably 40-50 feet tall, and they aren't even the tallest formations in the park! I would say the largest ones in the park could reach 200 feet or more, but I don't really know for certain so I am not going to change anything at this time.

[edit] Why the vandalism?
It is difficult to imagine why this natural feature in Colorado is so controversial as to attract repeated vandalism. Why? The latest vandal "blanked" the page for no apparent reason. It should be reverted (again). Sheesh.

Wow the origin of the Garden of the Gods is so improbable. I wonder who convinced those idiots to put "Beer Garden" as the origin of the name on their website. 165.124.106.201 (talk) 22:42, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
