Find the error in the photo on the left... Well yes, we didn't have a grill to cook our meat... So hop, we skewered the steak on the tent pegs, and with a few stones and charcoal, we were able to taste these succulent skewers... It's really classy !!!

Early wake up with this paddle steamer on Lake Powell and Tower Butte in the background.

Not far from the city of Page, the Colorado winds around this rocky peak. One word: pfffff wow, it's beautiful !!

PANORAMIC

To get an idea of the grandeur, look for the boat below by zooming in on the panoramic view.

A desert iguana (Dipsosaurus dorsalis) of at least 20 centimeters

This Canyon (and also the Lower Antelope) was formed by floods following rare rainstorms in this desert. Water carved the rock over centuries, detaching sandstone grains one by one.
With the help of wind, the mountain found itself separated by a fault 2-3 meters wide with unreal curves. The Sun completes this beautiful picture by adding wells of light.

The Navajos take us in a van to the entrance of Upper Antelope Canyon.

The entrance to Upper Antelope

At the other end of the fault. before returning on our steps.

The Lower Antelope is more curved and deeper than the Upper Antelope. To traverse this fault, you have to use stairs, and sometimes contort yourself to fit the walls so narrow is the passage.

A Navajo improvises a little ballad on the guitar in this unreal decor... Wow !!!

At the end of Lower Antelope, you climb these stairs to regain the surface.
