antelope canyon is the most well-known slot canyon on the navajo reservation just outside of page, arizona. you must enter with one of the established tours…so it is a somewhat expensive site…but imho, worth every penny. kelli and i had an awesome tour guide, angie, who took pictures for people and told everyone where to stand for the best shots. (you are not allowed to use flash photography in the canyon, so taking pictures requires guidance for the amateur.) even though it was one of the most populated sites we explored, i think it was also one of the most beautiful.

horseshoe bend is named for the shape the colorado river makes as it weaves through this portion of glen canyon. the hike (which is really a short trip to the rim of the canyon) trailhead is located just outside of page, arizona on us 89. it is an amazing site and requires a wide lens to capture (which i didn’t have).
