Arizona Autumn 2008
Monument Valley, Canyon De Chelly and Coal Mine Canyon

View of ruins in Canyon De Chelly

Taken at first light from the Junction Overlook towards the far canyon wall and First Ruin. The Kayenta Anazazi indians constructed this on the long narrow ledge sometime between the 11th and 13th centuries. It faces south to take advantage of the low winter sun.
