| 9/23: returning to the Navajo Nation the previous evening, we spent two nights in Chinle for our visit to this canyon. |
 |
| North Rim Drive. |
 |
| Antelope House Ruin (ca. 1300 AD) at base of the cliff. |
 |
| Even though this is Federal land, it is also the ancient ancestral home of the Navajo and they have permission to live and farm on the floor of the canyon. |
 |
| Mummy Cave Ruin (Puebloan, ca. 1300 AD) |
 |
| South Rim Drive. |
 |
| White House Ruin, ca. 1000 AD. |
 |
| Some large petroglyphs are visible on the face of the cliff below the upper structure. |
 |
| Spider Rock, 800-foot sandstone spire at the junction of Canyon de Chelly and Monument Canyon. Black Rock Butte is on the horizon above the left spire. |
 |
| Hubbell Trading Post; Ganado, Arizona |
 |
| The main room of this mercantile from 1876. |
 |
