Trip report
Outdated information
Nov 9, 2012 — Antelope Canyon has been photographed countless times, and the colors and light is unmistakeably inspiring for photographers and tourists alike. However! It's probably the most well-known slot canyon, and with its proximity being so close to Flagstaff and the Grand Canyon, makes for an easy destination. Plus, the Navajo market the crap out of it. Though I only saw a few people I feel like this is uncommon. If you go without a guide, the solitude can be rewarding, but I believe lately the canyon requires a guide. In 2012 when I checked out the canyon, if you have a camera and tripod, you can get a "photographer" permit and enter the canyon without a guide. Not sure this is the case anymore.
