Comment

Monument Valley is an American natural site on the border between Arizona and Utah.
The Navajos have named certain rocks, whose characteristic shape represents an animal, a person or symbolizes their history. These include "The Great Indian Chief", "The Imperial Eagle", "The Weeping Eye", "The Three Sisters" and "The Cowboy Boot".

There are the twin rocks called The Mittens and also the Totem Pole (a finger pointing skywards).
