1511 Kayenta
... to bargain, so Randy went in. But his bar was pretty low, so we just took the first place. Probably the best option in Kayenta anway. Because when we woke up, we found out that all the lights in Kayenta came from UFOs or something else, because the town ...

Monument Valley
Howdie, lasst uns Cowboy und Indianer spielen. Oder so ähnlich :-) Die Kulissen vieler Filme in Live zu sehen, war wirklich toll. Allerdings sahen die meisten Formationen von weitem besser und eindrücklicher aus *grins*. Ausserdem sind wir sind mit der ...

Monument Valley to Kayenta
... the first day that I did not really feel like riding. Probably because my ass is extremely sore and there was not much after Kayenta. This made for a good story. Im trying to find a campground or a cheap motel or something. I went to the visitor ...
Grand Canyon - Monument Valley
... quarter to three we find ourselves in a teeny-weeny village, Cameron. Here we have lunch just before we follow highway 160 to Kayenta. It seems as if I write everywhere the same, but we experience this route again as beautiful! In the distance it rains ...

It is snow joke (hahaha)
... it started to snow. I realised at this point that I needed to rethink my plans for the next few days as I had intended to use Kayenta as a base for a few trips back onto the Colorado plateau – but with this weather I could spend a lot of time ...
Monument Valley on the Arizona/Utah border
Monument Valley is in the very south of Utah - massive buttes and mesas rise up from the desert. The monuments have been used as backdrops in many movies, especially Westerns. We checked it out at sunset then again the next morning when we put the ...
Day 46 - Monumental!
... them home, bit by bit!) As we passed through Monument Valley we crossed back over the state line into Arizona. After stopping in Kayenta for an ice cream at McDonalds (even bigger "chips" and worse service than BK), we finally arrived at our camp for ...
The Best So Far....by far...

Chasing the Dawn
... simultaneously), so I had to settle for a flash-illuminated photo of the entrance sign. At just past 1am, I was approaching Kayenta, Arizona, my eyelids growing heavier with every blink. A giant monolith stood not too far off to the right, basking ...
