    That is spectacular. The light hopscotches it's way down the valley taking your eye with it.

    If you're going to Hunt's Mesa, be sure to get there early enough to allow ample time to scope out vantage points. The days are getting shorter, so the earlier the better. It takes close to 2-1/2 hours to get to the top via a 4WD vehicle (Navajo guide required). Some real serious off-roading...

    I saw a similar picture in Arizona Highways' Arizona book. It wasn't nearly as nice as this one.
