#612CrossCountryRoadTrip / Monument Valley

On my recent trip across the country, during the drive west, I visited Monument Valley on the border of Utah and Arizona. Monument Valley embodied everything that I imagined "the American West" would be. Giant red rock formations rising hundreds of feet into the air and a view on the road that extends for miles and miles, showing undisturbed natural beauty that stretches as far as the eye can see. It's an iconic landscape featured in a number of movies by director John Ford, including 1939's "Stagecoach" starring John Wayne.
   This was my second visit to Monument Valley. It's a magical place, and I hope that I can experience it many more times in the future.
