Famous canyon views from a different perspective
Dec 19, 2020 11:37:19 #
We've all seen hundreds of photos of Monument Valley and Rainbow Bridge. Here's some photos of famous canyon country sights ween from a totally different perspective. The photo of Rainbow Bridge is taken from 400 feet above it from the top of the cliffs to it's east - I suspect no one has ever photographed it from there. The Monument Valley photo is from VERY rarely visited (by non Navajos) Skeleton Mesa from a 30 day backpack we did there a few years ago, as is the Keet Seel (largest Anasazi Ruin in Arizona). Halls Creek Narrows is a beautiful spot in Capitol Reef National Park, that only backpackers can see. Here's a photo looking down into it from the top of the domes that it cuts through (you can see my hiking partners a little dots on the right side of the photo). Stay tuned for some more tomorrow. As always these are best viewed as downloads.

I just noticed the two hikers in the last photo. Really gives perspective. They’re on a shelf on the right side of the image.
