When you think of the Native Southwest, images of these lonely monoliths do not linger far behind. A geological marvel and a tribute to the patient hand of time. The first monuments are less than 2 hours away from the Cameron Trading Post. Most people drive along through the valley, stopping often to take photographs or simply marvel at the beauty, but there are hiking trails also to be explored. This is an experience unique to the Southwest that is not to be missed!
