Let’s talk about the icons of Monument Valley! While almost everyone recognizes the legendary Mittens, there is so much more to this sacred landscape than the classic postcards.
I'm sharing 10 iconic shots that offer a wider perspective of the valley — from the world-famous giants to the 'hidden' wonders like The Big Chief or The Thumb that most visitors drive right past without knowing their names.
I’ve listed all the details and locations below 👇
