Tough one. It is hard to tell whether it it streaks of water or something else?
I am going to guess Weeping Rock in Zion National Park.
Sorry, Eric, it's not Weeping Rock.
Looks like dark patina from runoff on sandstone. Can be everywhere on the Colorado plateau. Canyon de Chelly has such walls for example, as well as Canyonlands or Arches.
Devil's Tower?
Sorry, it's not Devil's Tower either.
Desert varnish
It is indeed desert varnish, and it could be anywhere on the Colorado Plateau. But it's a very specific spot that is famous with some national park travelers....
