Monument Valley at Sunset - Stunning Landscape of Navajo Tribal Park

Monument Valley at Sunset - Stunning Landscape of Navajo Tribal Park Located in Southeast Utah and the Northern border of Arizona – near the Four Corners region – lies the sandstone buttes of the Monument Valley. An iconic stretch of land, the Monument Valley is part of the Navajo Indian Nation and home to the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park. It’s one of the most majestic – and most photographed – points on earth. This great valley boasts sandstone masterpieces that tower at heights of 400 to 1,000 feet, framed by scenic clouds casting shadows that graciously roam the desert floor. The angle of the sun accents these graceful formations, providing scenery that is simply spellbinding. The landscape overwhelms, not just by its beauty but also by its size. The fragile pinnacles of rock are surrounded by miles of mesas and buttes, shrubs and trees, and windblown sand, all comprising the magnificent colors of the valley. All of this harmoniously combines to make Monument Valley a truly wondrous experience. Before human existence, the Park was once a lowland basin. For hundreds of millions of years, materials that eroded from the early Rock Mountains deposited layer upon layer of sediment which cemented a slow and gentle uplift, generated by ceaseless pressure from below the surface, elevating these horizontal strata quite uniformly one to three miles above sea level. What was once a basin became a plateau. Natural forces of wind and water that eroded the land spent the last 50 million years cutting into and peeling away at the surface of the plateau. The simple wearing down of altering layers of soft and hard rock slowly revealed the natural wonders of Monument Valley today. https://navajonationparks.org/ Elevation: 5,564 feet above sea level Size: 91,696 acres (spans Utah & Arizona) Music: Ilotana by ZERO-PROJECT https://www.zero-project.gr Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License CC BY 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/... _______________________________________________ © Copyright information: All music, sound effects, graphics, animations and video segments contained in my videos are used in strict compliance with the appropriate permissions and licenses required from https://www.epidemicsound.com/, https://www.pond5.com/, https://www.gettyimages.com/, https://pexels.com​, https://pixabay.com​ and https://unsplash.com​ in accordance with the YouTube Partner Program, Community guidelines & YouTube terms of service.
