Mark really wanted to return to the Monument Valley. When we came here during the pandemic, everything was closed. The Navajos suffered a lot from covid-19. Now, the park is open. Monument Valley is on Navajo land, and the hotels and restaurants employ local Navajos. We drove the 17 mile scenic drive as we were blown away by these commanding monuments made up of sandstone. We saw East Mitten Butte, West Mitten Butte, Three sisters, Elephant Butte and many more. Our hotel at The View Hotel stands up to its name. We have views of the Monument Valley.
