On Thursday, May 16, I left Petrified National Forest and drove roughly 100 miles to Canyon de Chelly National Monument, located just east of Chinle, AZ. The park is located on the Navajo Nation and is managed cooperatively by the Navajo Nation and National Park Service. The park encompasses roughly 84,000 acres in three canyons – Del Muerto, de Chelly, and Monument. People have lived in the canyons going back 5,000 years; some 2,400 archeological sites have been identified. About 40 Navajo families presently live in the canyons. Read More
