Antelope Canyon X


I’ve heard about and seen photos of Antelope Canyon, you probably have, too.  There’s Upper Antelope Canyon and Lower Antelope Canyon.  They are slot canyons and absolutely gorgeous from the photos I've seen.  Some day I’d like to see both in person.  But this time, since a lot of the WINs had visited both of those canyons before, they wanted to see the new one – Antelope Canyon X.  I decided I wanted to see that one, too.

It wasn’t far from Lone Rock Beach where we were camped.  We had reservations for a morning hike with a guide, and off we went.  I’m putting a link at the bottom of this post that you can click on to see all the information about getting there, cost, the different canyons, etc.  I don't think Canyon X is on it, though.  Just Upper and Lower.

Anyway, here are the best photos I took of this excursion.  The first group photo wasn’t mine.  I think it’s the one the guide took for us that was on the WINs FB page.  That's me in the white shirt.  🙃

There were two slot canyon areas in Canyon X.  We walked through the first canyon and then retraced our steps and walked through the second one.  Everywhere I looked I wanted to get a photo.  The colors and shapes were gorgeous.  As the sun crossed through the sky over the canyon, people who toured before and after our group probably saw the canyon in different lights and shadows.

I would recommend this hike for sure, and if I’m back in that area again, I’d like to visit Upper and Lower Antelope Canyon, too.
