We’ve just received a delightful story posted by Crazy Sally. I can tell you, she’s not…..crazy. She knows a wonderful place when she sees it and describes it wonderfully well. Sally’s written about the “Magic of Antelope Canyon” and added some spectacular photographs. Check it out.

Antelope Canyon is in the high and dramatic desert of northern Arizona, a few miles from Lake Powell and on the outskirts of Page. I’ve had the opportunity to explore that territory quite a bit over the years. I lived not far away on the Navajo Reservation years ago and I get back as often as possible. But until last year, I had never been in Antelope Canyon. In June, my crew and I taped a story there with the extraordinary photographer, Gary Ladd. We’ll put that story here on OpenRoad.TV in the near future. If you want to see Gary at work in the meantime, check out our journey with him in Zion National Park. I had heard about Antelope Canyon for a long time. Everyone, Gary included, said I’d be blown away. Was I ever! My team and I couldn’t believe our eyes. I’m sure our video, as good as it hopefully is, and as hard as we try to convey our experiences, won’t do the place justice. I urge you to read Sally’s nicely chosen words and enjoy her photographs. Then, get moving towards Antelope Canyon and share your experience.
