The Navajo name for Antelope Canyon is Tsé bighánílíní, the place where water runs through rocks!
Are you as stumped as I am as to how to say that?
We may not know how to say it, but the meaning is beautiful. It's so simple, yet perfectly captures the essence of Antelope Canyon.
We LOVED learning all about Antelope Canyon as we wrote our September 2021 American Heritage Adventure Letter about Antelope Canyon with a quick side trip to Horseshoe Bend!
We love sharinig with you some of the excellent resources we found as we researched this letter. We hope you'll enjoy these videos, websites, and more as much as we have. AND if you'd like to grab a copy of our Antelope Canyon Letter you can do by subscribing to the American Heritage Adventure Letter right here! We'll mail you a letter from explorer, Lizzy Jane, and she goes on an adventure through Antelope Canyon and watches the sun set over Horseshoe Bend!
