Antelope Slot Canyon | Inside The Navajo Nation

Antelope Slot Canyons

Located inside The Navajo Nation, you can only get in with a guided tour.

Apparently flash floods are still very much a thing, so official guides are a welcome thing.

After a brief frolic we drove an hour down the road and pulled in to watch the stars. It was after sundown, before moonrise, and I’ve never seen a sky like it.
