Antelope Canyon Navajo Tours
Upper Antelope Canyon is called Ts bighnln, ‘the place where water runs through rocks’ by the Navajo. It is the most frequently visited by tourists because its entrance and entire length are at ground level, requiring no climbing; and because beams of direct sunlight radiating down from openings at the top of the canyon are much more common. Beams occur most often in summer, as they require the sun to be high in the sky. Winter colors are more muted.
