Ledge Ruin Overlook | Canyon De Chelly
Canyon de Chelly National Monument is a joint venture between Navajo Nation and The National Park Service to preserve this unique area of land.
The ruins throughout the monument are remnants of the Anasazi who inhabited the region between 750 and 1300 CE. They built their domiciles into the sides of the canyon, which offered protection from the elements as well as neighboring enemies. The land is now owned by Navajo Nation and is a sacred site. It is unique for an NPS area in that the Dinë people live and farm the land.
The sheer size of the canyon is stunning and has been the fascination of photographers in America since the 1800’s.
