Here in the four corner’s region, you are surrounded by Indian Reservations, mostly the Navaho Nation. Due to Covid, the drive thru Monument Valley is still closed, so we saw the lesser known sites. First, off to Goosenecks State Park. here, the San Juan River winds thru canyons cut over eons. Not as high as Horseshoe Bend in AZ, but still impressive.

Then we drove up the road a little to the Moki Dugway. Here Route 261 turns from two lane pavement to 1-2 lanes of dirt. On this three mile section of the Trail of the Ancients, you travel up a 10% grade with no guardrails. Scary but beautiful.

Around the corner of the Dugway is Muley Point and Muley East. This overlook is on the backside of Goosenecks SP and gives you some awesome canyon views.
