Unearthly [Valley of the Gods, UT]

Took a day-trip to see the nearby supposed sister to Monument Valley. You know, the one where John Ford shot all his westerns and made the Duke famous. Anyway, Valley of the Gods is no B-grade movie set. It is every bit as stunning in its own way. Monument Valley has a few iconic pillars but Valley of the Gods has this amazing depth to it that might give Grand Canyon a run.

We also stopped in nearby Mexican Hat (home to Wasatch microbrewery) and at Sand Island, which has hundreds of petroglyphs going back thousands of years.もっと詳しく
