Spider Rock Overlook

Today we drove the South Rim Drive in Canyon de Chelly (after first having Blue Corn Pancakes at the Thunderbird Lodge which is next door to the campground). Our first stop was the very last overlook, Spider Rock which is an 800-foot sandstone spire that rises from the canyon floor at the junction of Canyon de Chelly and Monument Canyon. The views were absolutely magnificent...more than one can ever capture in pictures. At the bottom of the canyon was a small farm with horses running loose.
