This is "John Ford Point". There location is in Monument Valley is named for Hohn Ford the movie director. Unlike a lot of places I photographed, you do not need permission from the Navajo tribe to get there, although I recommend vehicle with 4 wheel drive.

You can also make arrangements with the Navajo to have a tribal member, in traditional dress, to ride on a horse and pose for you on the point.

Beautiful. It only needs the native American on horseback to really set it off.

Fantastic pic. Really captures a mood with so much detail. Can imagine a warrior in the foreground sitting on his horse in battle regalia etc. Reminds me of the old Columbia Pictures movies of cowboys and Indians.

Wonderful, I love Monument Valley. It’s a bit out of the way from the big 5 of southern Utah but much more dramatic IMO. John Ford filmed a number of famous westerns here with John Wayne including Stagecoach and The Searchers.
You were fortunate to have good weather at sunrise, last time we were there the light was very dull overcast.
