Canyons of Arizona - Jun '06

Arizona canyons are famous.
But, besides Grand Canyon, one can find unique and magnificent slot canyons.
Antelope Canyon, one of the most famous of the slot canyons, is located in Arizona near Page, on the Navajo reservation.
The Buckskin Gulch is the longest and deepest slot canyon in the southwest United States and may very well be the longest in the world.
As such it is one of the premier destinations for slot canyon hikers, and receives a high amount of foot traffic. With a distance of 20 miles (32 km), hiking this canyon in one day is do-able but not easy.

    What a nature art !
    The walls of both canyons are rather dark, and the depth means that the sun rarely illuminates the narrow passages fully and there are fewer pretty patterns of light and color such as often found in, for example, Antelope Canyon
    There is no drinkable water except for a clear, shallow stream that flows for the last half mile before the confluence with the Paria River.
