We'll begin loading gear at 7:30am and will depart Phoenix by 8am.

Inn on the Navajo Reservation, we'll stop at historic Cameron

Our outfitter will pick us up in the morning and we'll spend

Photographing a magnificent sunrise from the unique
perspective offered by Hunt’s Mesa will be our goal
in the morning.

make our way back to Kayenta, stopping to photograph a number
of wonderful sights along the way, including Spider Arch.
 Day

Monument Valley's many attractions are our subject
today during a full-day tour of the valley. We'll enjoy trips
to such well-known areas as the sand dunes, Totem Pole, the
Mittens and more. We may also visit the home of Navajo weaver
Susie Yazzie.
 Day
Five

Another half-day tour of Monument Valley gives you one last chance to capture the disctinctive character of the landscape. If time permits, we'll stop at Coal Mine Canyon
on the return drive.
