Default Monument Valley - Utah

Hey guys, yesterday we took a drive to MonumentValley and Valley Of The Gods on the Utah / Arizona border. There really wasn't any 4 wheelin involved just a lot of long dirt roads but I though that everyone might enjoy the pics anyway.

Valley Of The Gods - Wide Open Spaces




Seven Sailors & Sitting Hen Buttes

This section of road is called the Moki Dugway. It climbs 1,100 feet in 3 miles.




Looking down on the road over 1000ft below

You can see a section of river called the Goosenecks and Monument Valley in the distance.

The river meanders back and forth, flowing for more than five miles while progressing only one linear mile toward the Colorado River and Lake Powell.




After heading back down the Dugway we continued on toward Monument Valley
