West and East Mitten Butte

Monument Valley, Navajo County, Arizona, USA

 

West and East Mitten Buttes (also known collectively as The Mittens) are two distinctive geological features found within the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park in northeast Navajo County, Arizona.

When viewed from the south, the buttes appear to be two gigantic mittens with their thumbs facing inwards.

 

The two buttes are about 0.6 miles (0.97 km) from the Arizona–Utah state line and West Mitten Butte is 1.1 miles (1.8 km) northeast of the park headquarters.

The summit of West Mitten Butte is 6,176 feet (1,882 m) and East Mitten Butte is 6,226 feet (1,898 m) in elevation.

I decided to look at my digital archives, to recover and reprocess some old straight-out-of the point and shoot camera jpgs.

I'll post one picture every thursday, with the motto "Great places, bad cameras"

Ho deciso di dare un'occhiata nei miei archivi digitali, recuperando e rielaborando vecchie foto dei miei viaggi riprese con fotocamere "Point and shoot".

Cercherò di postarne una ogni giovedì, all'insegna del motto "Great places, bad cameras"
