  • NOTE: A guide is required to hike in this park. If you are interested, please reach out to Victoria at 928-797-8415. She is an amazing guide and is an authorized Navajo guide. Let her know that you saw this video!
    Canyon de Chelly is entirely owned by the Navajo Tribal Trust of the Navajo Nation. It is the only National Park Service unit that is owned and cooperatively managed in this manner. About 40 Navajo families live in the park.
    In Hopi mythology, "Spider Grandmother" (Hopi Kokyangwuti) also called "Gogyeng Sowuhti" among many other names can take the shape of an old, or timeless woman or the shape of a common spider in many Hopi stories. When she is in her spider shape, she lives underground in a hole that is like a Kiva. When she is called upon, she will help people in many ways, such as giving advice or providing medicinal cures. "Spider Grandmother" is seen as a leader, a wise individual who represents good things.

    So amazing. I hadn't dropped in to see your channel in quite a while! For all I saw in Arizona, I never went to Canyon de Chelly. I think I need to!

      It's a great spot. Worth the investment of getting into the canyon hiring a guide.

    I have hiked here. It is pronounced Canyon de Shay.

    Awesome! When did you visit? I live 30 miles from there and we had flash flooding for several weeks. I bet it is not as dry as when you came. ^_^

    • @FoorTrek
      @FoorTrek  Před 2 lety

      Hi Jackie! I was there in late April. It was super dry (as you can see and you already know). I'm glad you had rain, yet we need more of the light rain, than the flooding type. :-)

    You should learn how to pronounce Canyon de Chelly. Hint: it’s French.
