Monument Valley
On the Utah and Arizona borders
April 19, 2014
It is always amazing to visit Monument Valley in the Navajo Nation Tribal Park. I had the pleasure of having a Navajo guide take me into the back country for sunrise at the Yei Bi Chei and the famous Totem Pole. Here is a view just before the sun rose across the horizon. The soft light created this warm sand color and the fresh spring greens.
Here is a panoramic view from the famous Artist’s Point looking west into the “Vast Valley.”
A view from the North Window.
The light and skies are always changing here. Can you picture John Wayne riding across this valley? John Ford shot many famous movies in this valley.
