Sitting on the Utah and Arizona border, Monument Valley is a small part of the 16 million acre Navajo Reservation. Monument Valley is 9,696 acres of wide flat desert with rich red buttes, mesas, and canyons. The rock formations that stand-alone and rise hundreds of feet are the last remnants of the sandstone layers that once covered the region. Stagecoach, How the West was Won and Back to the Future are just a few of the major movies that have been filmed in this area. |
