Kayenta

Monument Valley NP Navajo Tribal Park via Glen Canyon National Nat Rec Area, Hite Crossing Viewpoint, White Canyon, Jacob’s Chair, Natural Bridges National Monument, Grand Gulch Plateau, Cedar Messa, Moki Dugway Switchback, Valley of the Gods, Mexican Hat and Kayenta. Exceptional views most of the route, especially.

The Mokidugway switchback at Valley of the Gods is awesome and not for the fainthearted. The excellent Sr 261 road across the Cedar Messa Plateau changes to a dirt track and drops 1100 ft in 3 miles!! I'm busy admiring the shear-drop view over Valley of the Gods when this Native American lady taps me on the shoulder to sell trinkets. I just abour messed myself.

Missed the San Juan Goosenecks and wished we hadn’t!

Monument Valley’s natural beauty has been devastated by the Navajo People – litter all around and shacks scattered across the desert. The Monument Valley Visitor Centre is a disgrace.Leggi altro
