Spider Rock

cross beds in canyon walls on our way down the Sliding Rock trail Sliding House ruins

After a brief stop at the impressive Spider Rock Howard takes us on a hike down into Canyon de Chelly. We climb down the sliding house trail, visit Sliding House ruins and have lunch down in the canyon.

We come back out of the canyon at White House, where we spend several fortunes on Navajo jewelry, which makes it necessary to run into town for a quick ATM stop.
