Early morning sunrise at the Grand Canyon:

 

We said goodbye to the canyon and headed Northeast.  Our first stop of the day was Navajo National Monument:

 

We took a short hike to an overlook of the Betatakin ruins:

 

 

Onward to Monument Valley.  On the approach, we passed Agathla Peak:

 

Driving into the valley:

 

We drove the dirt road through the valley.  It was amazing.

On our way north, we passed the Mexican Hat:

 

Next we stopped at Goosenecks State Park.  There was a bit of scrambling involved in getting this shot, which is a four photograph panorama:

 

We ended our day driving into the Valley of the gods:

 

We found a nice spot to set up camp at the North end of the valley.  The nearest people were about 10 miles away.  I would have to say this spot was tied for the best dispersed camping spot to date:
