Driving on the Navajo Nation


The Navajo Nation of northwestern Arizona and extending into Utah and New Mexico is "larger than any one of ten U.S. States:  West Virginia, Maryland, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Connecticut, Delaware and Rhode Island – and is less than one percent shy of being equal to the combined area of the last five (New Hampshire through Rhode Island)." See Wikipedia: Navajo Nation. We recently drove about 200 miles from the southern boundary of the Navajo Nation to the northern boundary. We often associate the type of rock formation shown in the photo with Monument Valley. But these formations are common across large areas of the Nation.
