kaibito canyon is a slot canyon on the navajo reservation. one has to climb and use a rope to get in. fortunately i had strong men at the top and the bottom. getting in was easy....getting out was harder.......enjoy! thanks in advance for any comments.

Excellent color tones, textures, lighting and composition on this one Jen. You do such a fantastic job of bringing us these slot canyons. Where was this Navajo reservation?
This is raw beauty provided by Mother Nature and brought to us by you. To my favorites it goes. Thank you for what you did to capture the image and also for sharing it with me =)

Wow! You really did that? I'm impressed. You must have had sun right over head to get such a great and detailed shot of this amazing slot canyon. Those ridges are just amazing. How exciting this must have been for you.

Looks like it would be quite a challenge getting in and out of such a place, even with some strong helpers. Remarkably good capture in what must frequently be a dark and shadowy area.

Excellent image again Jen. Although an image is only 2D, this one gives a very good impression how deep this canyon is. Great work.

Up in balloons, down into the canyon. Is there anything you won't try? You are a very adventurous person, Jen. No wonder you got so many great shots no one else would get. Nice one here, again.

I think canyons are fascinating. I have never been to one, but I would love to. Maybe someday I will.

Truly magnificent and Jimbob took my comment away. Getting there is half the fun, the other is taking photos like this!

Those flow lines are fabulous. It's hard to imagine that water once flowed through here, or for that matter, that his was once sea floor.

Great capture.

Wow...never thought I'd see Kaibeto Canyon on the internet but this sure brings back a lot of memories. I've been to the canyon several times when I went to boarding school in Kaibeto Az. The school would have a day when we took walks down to the canyon and follow it to the end and it is beautiful! I Wish I took pictures back then. Thanks for bringing back memories Jeenie.
