Description
Antelope Canyon is a Sandstone Sistine Chapel in the middle of desert. This type of geological formation is called a slot canyon.It was and is being formed by the abrasive forces of rock and rapidly running water,during periodic flash floods.
This is without a doubt the finest example of a Slot Canyon in the world, as such it has become a congested tourist trap. I'm not saying don't go,by all means go you will get some great photos! The town of Page Arizona is within a few miles of Antelope and Cork Screw Canyons.The Glen Canyon Dam,Lake Powell, and The Horseshoe are other great tourist and photo sites in the area.
