Canyons?

Jeb recently tweeted this photo.

It's apparently going to be a new canyons biome.

What do you guys think about it?

If that's hardened clay, I give it a +1.

Looks almost like the desert hills Boimes in Hexxit that give red cobble. \o3o/

awesome that would be really cool to have a biome made of what looks like clay

*Sediment
Sorry I am very picky when it comes to canyons (\o3o/)

Also a cliffs biome, owing to a comment by jeb on the reddit topic

Aw yis but isnt 1.7 the ocean update though?

I hope they add roadrunner and coyote mobs, plus crafting recipes for over-the-top ACME equipment

hmm, who knows, maybe some changes to the Ocean Biome, but I don't see anything about it yet;

Yes.

Biomes + Ocean Update

Seems like a Deserted Wasteland update to me. The new biome reminds me too much of the modpacks. It will feel weird not having just sand grass and dirt.

That biome looks horrible!

There goes the value of clay...

QUICK, EVERYBODY AUCTION OFF THEIR CLAY BLOCKS BEFORE 1.7

Maybe it'll be rare, like a mooshroom island

They are also talking about adding some Cherry Trees. !!!

HIDE THEM FROM JCPUGS!

Anyone else noticed the zombie or something in the middle of the picture not burning?

If you zoom in it looks like a person because its arms aren't sticking out.
