One Polygamist family is literally stuck between a rock and a hard place, and couldn't be happier about it!

Enoch Foster, his two wives and 13 children live nestled in the side of a rock face in the Canyonlands National Park outside of Moab, Utah, and while their home offers spectacular views of the sweeping landscape, it was a challenge in architectural planning.

The Fosters are part of a small community of approximaltey 100 fundamentalist Mormons -  including both polygamists and monogamists – that was founded 35 years ago on the south face of a sandstone rock that reaches up to 400 feet tall.

Rockland Ranch, nicknamed 'The Rock,' was founded 35 years ago by Robert Dean Foster, following his quest to find a safe and removed place to nurture the Christian community that embraces multiple marriages where they could worship the teachings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in peace, reported the Atlantic.

The unique housing community was created by blasting huge caves into the sandstone cliffs, and then building modern homes – complete with electricity, running water and Internet access – in the resulting caverns.
