Excellent composition. It draws my eyes from foreground upto that rock. I also like that golden light at the left corner. But again, that competes with the rock in the middle, where the focus should be for this image. May be you can atleast clone that rock on top left, or crop the image a little on the left.
Contrast is bit harsh for my eyes, and don't see much detials on the valley floor. That could be due to your wide angle lens. Do I see noise at the background? Not sure, as I'm viewing it on my laptop.
Did you take any other images using different focal lengths? Or did you try when the light was gone?
Eric, great capture of mother nature's hand at work here. Although I have seen many previous shots similar to this from the Race Track, the depth of the cut here is really amazing on this path.

I like the "goin away from you" composition.
Nice angle.

Well, thanks every one for the feed back on this image.. I was not so sure about it at first when I looked at the RAW file before processing...

Cool shot Eric! I really like the fact the rock is going away from me and the golden light in the upper left corner is quite attractive!
