Yavapai College: Canyon de Chelly Overnight Adventure

Canyon de Chelly, an amazing other-worldly landscape of 800-foot tall red cliffs, includes spectacular cliff dwellings and mystical rock art from centuries in the past.  The canyon was once home to the ancestral Hopi and today sustains a living community of Navajo (the Dine’) living in spiritual connection with this beautiful landscape.  We’ll tour the canyon’s south rim, viewing its beauty from above, and also take a 4×4 tour into the canyon with Navajo guides who will share their stories with us.  During our journey there and back, we’ll visit Petrified Forest, the Painted Desert, and historic Hubbell Trading Post as well as traveling paved back road across Navajo land (Dinetlah).  A fair amount of walkng is included, some optional, but all on easy terrain.
