  • Monument Valley Meander
    RV Traveler's Roadmap to Monument Valley Meander However you experience it, the valley is a wonder to behold, a harsh yet hauntingly beautiful landscape. View it in early morning, when shadows lift from rocky marvels. Admire it in springtime,when tiny pink and blue wildflowers sprinkle the land with jewel-like specks of color. Try to see it through the eyes of the Navajos, who still herd their sheep and weave their rugs here. 1 Highlights & Facts For The Ideal Experience Agathla Peak Trip Length: Roughly 260 miles, plus side trips Best Time To Go: Spring - autumn What To Watch Out For: When on Indian reservations abide by local customs. Ask permission before taking photos, never disturb any of the artifacts. Must See Nearby Attractions: Grand Canyon National Park (near Flagstaff, AZ) Petrified Forest National Park (near Holbrook, AZ) Zion National Park (Springdale, UT) 2 Traveler's Notes Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park The stretch of Rte. 163 called the Trail of the Ancients in honor of the vanished Anasazis cuts across Monument Valley at the Utah border on its way to the little town of Mexican Hat. Named for a rock formation there that resembles an upside-down sombrero a whimsical footnote to the magnificence of Monument Valley—Mexican Hat is the nearest settlement to Goosenecks State Park, just ahead and to the west via Rtes. 261 and 316. The monuments in the park have descriptive names. They are based on ones imagination. These names were created by the early settlers of Monument Valley. Others names portray a certain meaning to the Navajo people.

  • Arizona Highways
    CUMULATIVE INDEX· ARIZONA HIGHWAYS VOLUME 1, 1925 through VOLU~IE 27, 1951 ARTICLES appearing in ARIZONA HIGHWAYS from volume 1 in 1925 through volume 27 in 1951 are indexed here under author and subject. Indexing is similar to that found in READERS' GurnE TO PERIODICAL LITERATURE; each article is listed under the heading or headings most closely indicating the general subject matter. This is not a detailed analytical index to contents of articles. The user will find, for instance, those articles which deal with Katchinas, but not the names of various Katchinas discussed in the articles. Very general headings such as DESCRIPTION have been used only where more specific headings were not possible. A series of tall tales which appeared during early years of the magazine have been listed under that heading. Portraits have been indexed wherever there was a clear likeness. Group por­ traits have been incJuded when likenesses were clear and recognizable. There is a special index to color illustrations which have been an outstanding feature of ARIZONA HrGHWAYS for the past 10 years. Generally each picture has been listed under a single subject, the one which in the fallible judgment of the compiler, seemed most appropriate. It is hoped this will be of use to teachers and armchair travelers. ♦ COMPILED BY DONALD M.

  • Clean Air and Water Navajo Nation
    Clean Air and Water Navajo Nation: Water for Life in the Southwest Judith Arnold Dine Institute for Navajo Nation Educators (DINE) 2019 Author Note: Judith Arnold is a fifth-grade teacher at Marshall Elementary School. Correspondence about this curriculum unit can be addressed to Judith Arnold 2305 West Adirondack Avenue, Flagstaff, AZ, 8600. Email contact: [email protected] Introduction I was raised in an isolated area in rural Kansas. It was so quiet that you could hear ringing in your ears from the silence. The only people I have ever mentioned this to that recognized that level of quietness in nature were Navajo people that had been raised on the Navajo Reservation. My parents were glad to have seven children. We lived in a house much too small for our family. There was not enough space to stand up to leave the kitchen table after we sat down to eat until everyone finished their food. The kids closest to the next room stood up first so those of us pinned in by the table could push it outward and get out as well. We raised our own food. We had fruit trees and a huge garden, so we always had enough to eat. We lived across a dirt road from the railroad tracks. The train would pass by once and on occasion twice a day. It was a great adventure to run along the road as the train went by and wave to the men in the caboose who would watch for us every day and wave back. My family was poor, and we had few toys other than sticks and clay that we formed into pottery shapes and paper that we drew on.
