The Chief - Antelope Canyon, AZ
Today we celebrate Memorial Day and those people who died while serving our country in the armed services. I thought it would be the perfect time to share this image taken in Lower Antelope Canyon. The rock formation is called The Chief. I wanted to try something different and thought it would be cool to include a formal headdress into the rock formation. For those that may wonder, I did ask one of my Navajo friends if this image might be a problem. I got the A-Okay and so here it is.
Much respect and gratitude to the Navajo Code Talkers of WWII on this Memorial Day.

Chief Dan George was born as Geswanouth Slahoot on July 24, 1899 in North Vancouver, Canada. He entered a residential school at the age of five years and was given the name of Dan George. During most of his adult life, he worked at a variety of jobs to include being a longshoreman, a school bus driver, and a carpenter. In 1951, he became the chief of a band of the Tsleil-Waututh Nation…he served in this capacity until 1963.
He began his acting career in 1960 by appearing in a Canadian television series called “Cariboo County.” In 1970, he appeared in the film, “Little Big Man,” alongside Dustin Hoffman, for which he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
In 1976, Chief Dan George appeared alongside Clint Eastwood in the film, “The Outlaw Josey Wales,” in the role of “Lone Wadi.” He continued to make film, television, and stage appearances up until the time of his death on September 23, 1981 in Vancouver, Canada at the age of 82 years. He was buried in the Burrard Cemetery on the Tsleil-Waututh reservation.

took in the sunrise on Sunday from the top of Cape Kiwanda #oregonstateparks. This a stunning place to watch the Earth come alive with the morning light and a perfect way to end the long weekend. The hike up to the top isn't easy with 15lbs of camera gear. The loose sand makes you earn every inch but trust me its worth the effort :-).

Chief Mountain sits in Montana but us Albertans enjoy the view all the time.
This view is from the highway traveling to Waterton National Park in Alberta. I took a few angles from this location, with and without fencing and streams in the area but this angle was my favorite.
In the link below - "Chief Mountain has been a sacred mountain to Native American tribes for hundreds of years. The Blackfoot name for the mountain is Nínaiistáko.[6][5] The mountain was seen by white explorers in the late 18th century and was known as "Kings Peak" on maps produced in the United Kingdom in 1795. The name was changed in the late 19th century in reflection of Blackfeet naming of the mountain which was "Great Chief". When Glacier National Park was created in 1910, the summit and most prominent eastern slopes of the mountain were located within the park, leaving only the lower slopes within Blackfeet jurisdiction.[5]
Chief Mountain remains sacred to many First Nations peoples from both the U.S. and Canada. Natives from all over North America travel to the base of the mountain for sweet grass ceremonies, placing of prayer flags and other religious rites. In the early 1900s as white settlers came to the area, they observed native burial sites scattered along the base of the mountain. Elders from Southern Alberta's Siksika Band (where the Great Chief Crowfoot hailed from) and other First Nation groups have an oral tradition that near the end of days, a Great White God would appear from the top of Chief Mountain and upon his departure, the mountain would crumble and be destroyed."
