Description
The quintessential Southwestern scenery is represented by the mesas and buttes of
Tse Bii' Ndzisgaii (Valley of the Rocks), the Navajo name for Monument Valley. Known around the world for its landscape, which was made famous in John Ford Westerns of the 1930s, this jewel of the Navajo Nation is depicted in all sorts of light, from first light to sunrise, mid-morning, sunset and dusk. Looking north, as seen from the valley floor, late afternoon light graces West Mitten with Sentinel Mesa, Eagle Mesa, the Northern Buttes and Big Indian in the background.
