Was give the opportunity to ride passenger with one of my Higher Ground friends for photos on this trail. Of course for me that meant a lot of time hiking along side.
We did the guided thing with Antelope House Tours. I can't say enough good things about our Navajo ride along guides. Every night there was story telling and singing as we camped on their family's land. Ben had an eerily beautiful voice and Adam, his son, had the gift of mixing old passed tales with his own interpretations and morals.
The first day after waking we drove and explored Canyon de Chelly, the second, Canyon de Meurto, and then a little Black Rock Canyon before leaving on Monday morning.
A very magnificent trip I would recommend to anyone.
