Arizona Hoodoos and Horseshoes

Horseshoe Canyon Bend, AZ

Not a bad place to work if you have to work at all! Sunset is right over the canyon.

Jeremy working! Not a bad view!

Toadstool Hike

Then we landed on Tattooine…or Dune, where Jeremy, the lone traveler, roams the plains. This is really the Toadstool hike, a ~1.5-2mile round trip about 30min from Antelope Canyon on the way to Bryce Canyon. GPS coordinates for the parking area are 37.101013, -111.873522.

Antelope Canyon

The park’s on reservation land, but you can tour either the upper or lower canyon through a number of agencies. We chose the less-traveled, narrower lower canyon as opposed to the wider upper canyon, which has the traditional photos of sandy light shafts. It’s really mind-boggling how features formed like this. Every which way you turn there’s something to catch your eye.

The slot of lower canyon runs about 1/4 mile. Yes, you descend into that crack!
