the atelope canyon near Page / Arizona is world famous for its “sun beams”. only guided tours and photo tours are available and they are usually fully booked, so the tip: book in advance (we’ll do that only super reluctant for our travels), you can see the sun beams only from march until october, then the sun is to low, even in arizona. Then the light rays can no longer reach the bottom of the canyon.
The guide knows where to throw dust into the air and immediately the cameras start to rattle. in the meanwhile the tourists without a photo tour have to wait. Well, a real nature experience is different. Sadly we couldn´t visit the lower canyon, it starts to rain emerging rain quickly can transform such slot canyon into a death trap.
