Finally, an accounting of our week in Utah wouldn’t be complete without a couple of shots of Monument Valley, made famous in all those western movies from the 30’s, 40’s, and 50’s. We detoured through the town of Mexican Hat and crossed the San Juan River to catch a look at it on our way back home. Monument Valley is now a park owned and operated by the Navajo Nation. The rugged dirt road through it is only passable in a 4-wheel drive vehicle with good clearances, so we decided not to attempt it in my aging Cadillac. Nonetheless, we got a couple of good photos before driving on.
