Arizona Trip - Day 3 (Navajo Canyon Ferry, Wupatki National Monument, Sunset Crater)


We got up early and went to the ferry boarding point in Lake Powell. We boarded the ferry at about 9 am. The ferry took as to Antelope Canyon & Navajo Canyon. The walls of Navajo Canyon was 800 ft high. It was a 3 hours tour and you can get breath taking views of the Canyons. My wife & I enjoyed it very much. My daughter caught up with her sleep for 3 hours :)

We had our lunch and started driving towards Phoenix. On the way back, we went to Wupatki National Monument and Sunset Crater. The Highway 545 (which is off of Highway 89) drive was very scenic. There was Cococino forest on both the sides of the road and it was fully covered with snow. It looks like you have to take the Lava flow trail to see the Sunset Crater. My daughter was sleeping and we had to skip that.

We reached Phoenix at around 8.30 pm. We camped in Paradise RV Resort. Paradise RV resort is a good community and the stay was very pleasant.
