Ridge Point - Utah
What to do if you have little time : Ridge Point
Ridge Point is a viewpoint over a valley from a plateau with the "buttes" of Monument Valley in the background.
It's best to get there at sunrise and wait for the sunlight to slowly nibble away at the shadows on the valley floor.
In the late afternoon, the sun is against the light.
