Navajo Reservation


A few of us from UVU got to go down to Chinle, Arizona to the Navajo Reservation over fall break. My roommate is Navajo and we were going to visit her family and learn a little about their culture. I've never been down that way, so I got to see Price, Moab, and Monument Valley on the way down to Chinle.


Ok, so we're total dorks, but we did have fun. They had an open market on Friday and we got a few random things, like air-soft guns. So of course we had to play with them. This is us...doing the Charlie Angel's thing.

This is Spider Rock in the Valley de Chelly.


This is my roommate, Andrea Wagner, showing us how to make fry bread, Navajo style. She's standing in front of her families hogan. Not only did she show us, but we all got to help. So we are all now qualified, Navajo fry bread makers. :)

We made enough to feed the whole Wagner tribe. :)
