Antelope Canyon


I've seen pictures of this magical place and it has been on my to-do list for a while. A sweet friend watched all of our girls overnight and Brent and I took a little trip. Antelop Canyon is in Page, AZ on the border of Utah. It is in Navajo land and Navajo only let you go through the canyon with a guide since they consider it sacred ground. Just beautiful. You need to put this on your Bucket list. SO worth it.
  This is the hole in the ground you jump down in to reach the slot canyon.

And this is what you see underneath.



















After the canyon hike, Brent and I took another hike out to Horshoe Bend. It's a place where the Little Colorado River curves around a land mass and makes a perfect horseshoe. The scenery was gorgeous and so worth it, but it was a rough hike. Just a mile, but you are slogging through deep sand uphill in blinding sunlight.
