Ethereal Journey Through the Ages of Monument Valley (sunset tour with Travis Mose)

Though I have been to Monument Valley many times over the past 30 years, several of which have been with Navajo guides, this one with Travis was, as we said back in the day, Mind Blowing. The pagentry of the monuments marching through time was brought to life for me this time as in no other visit. I felt the living sky and earth and wind through the notes of Travis' flute and observed a man, a truly blessed man, who demonstrates what it is to walk in beauty. As we passed through beloved land, Travis' way of welcoming, his generosity in sharing his heritage knitted sense through the awareness of a troubled world and I entered into a deeper understanding of the oneness of all things, even people who strive to be distinct and above others, and this not in words as much as the deep acceptance of how to be in contrast to what we have learned of people's sickness of soul. Afraid I'll get all sappy and sentimental sounding if I go on, I'll close with this. Now, after this trip through the valley, my heart is woven through with the glorious red dirt of healing. For my new husband, Geoff Koetsch and I, it was a blessing on our late years' love and the wonder of life embraced. Thank you, Travis. Shirley Willis

Exceptional 💥👌

Beyond his skills as a guide, Travis, whose real name is "Dark Sky" in Navajo, marked our journey with his remarkable humanity and sensitivity. His deep desire to convey the essence of his land was expressed through the songs and stories that accompanied our hours of sharing. Knowledgeable in photography, he also shared his secrets for capturing the best viewpoints. By transforming this incursion into sacred territory, Travis became indispensable; we will do our best to request his services again during our next stay in Monument Valley.
