Labyrinth called Canyon de Chelly is really several canyons, which include Canyon de Chelly and Canyon del Muerto. At the mouth of the canyon the rock walls are only 30 feet high. Deeper into the canyons, to the east, the walls rise dramatically until they reach more than 1000 feet above the floor. The cliffs rise straight up, overshadowing the streams, cottonwoods, and small farms below. It has taken about two million years and volumes of water to etch these stone paths through the layers of sandstone and igneous rock as the Defiance Plateau pushed its way upward. Today the canyon still beckons us with its towering stone monoliths and ledges bearing the open windows of ancient people.

Sunset over Canyonlands, Utah, USA, from Dead Horse Point in Dead Horse Point State park, Utah, USA. Canyonlands preserves a wilderness of rock at the heart of the Colorado Plateau. Water and gravity have been the prime architects of this land, cutting flat layers of sedimentary rock into hundreds of canyons, mesas, buttes, fins, arches, and spires. At center stage are two canyons carved by the Green and Colorado rivers. Surrounding the rivers are vast and very different regions, Island in the Sky on north, the Maze at west and the Needles at east. Canyonlands national park is located near Moab, Utah, USA.
