Description
Red rock formations rise majestically from the canyon floor, surrounded by patches of lush greenery. Fluffy white clouds dot the bright blue sky, adding depth to the expansive landscape.
Reached by a side road, Sliding House Overlook is close to several ancient structures, the most visible ruin, is a medium-sized site in a shady alcove, built on a sloping surface and giving the appearance of sliding downwards. The overlook is situated on a projecting section of the canyon rim edged by sheer cliffs on three sides, which allows different views from each canyon edge. Canyon de Chelly at this location is very steep-walled and spectacular and the image gives a good perspective of how big the canyon really is.
Hint: find the fenced in trees to the right and go up from there…
Some digital effects were applied to the original image after the photograph was made. No electrons were harmed during the transition.
