Walking the slot canyons of Antelope Canyon, Arizona, USA

Walking the slot canyons of Antelope Canyon, Arizona, USA

Antelope Canyon is a walk of barely a hundred metres that photographs like another dimension: sandstone corridors carved by flash floods into waves of orange and violet, lit by shafts of sun from above. Navajo guides lead every visit — book the midday slots between March and October, when the famous light beams reach the canyon floor. Upper Antelope is flat and effortless; Lower adds a few ladders and loses some crowds. No fitness needed, just elbows for the photo spots.
