Canyon De Chelly through Navajo Eyes

Leon Skyhorse Thomas has produced this docu-drama telling some of the historyof the Navajo people and their connection through time to Canyon De Chelly. It is well done. The film presents the viewer background as to whom the Navajopeople are, when they came to the region and Canyon De Chelly's place in theirhistory. I recommend it to both those who have been to the Navajo Nation, aswell as those who are coming. He has some excellent photography, flute music byCarl Nakai and a good supporting cast. It is available from his website or atlocal gift shops in either DVD or VHS formats and is over twenty minutes inlength.View 36 frames from the actual film Tseyi Jeep ToursHiking, 4x4 Tours and Canyon OvernightsBobby Van Winkle Sr.Authorized Navajo GuideWebpage for"www.Tseyijeeptours.com"
