Later, we will drive to Goosenecks State Park to photograph the San Juan River that has cut out a canyon 1,500 feet deep. We will then head over to the Valley of the Gods which is just a few minutes away from Goosenecks.

We may try some night photography for those that are up to it.

Depending on exact timing, we will also photograph the “House on Fire” Anasazi Ruins which is nearby. It involves walking a few miles. On the way back we will photograph the lookout from Muley Point Road if there is still light in the sky.
DAY 4 - We will photograph the valley overlook at sunrise and then drive our personal cars into Monument Valley. This is where we will see some classic scenes such as "Totem Pole", "Rain God Mesa", and "John Ford's Point". This will be about a two hour drive on dirt roads.
