 When the Grand Canyon trip was over,the Petersons and I went to see the Annual Social Dance in the Hopi Reservation. We took 89S and then 264E to the Second Mesa where the festivities took place in their kivas. All the Hopis and cute children wore traditional costume,lots of turquoise jewelry, fox hides attached to mens behind, women with cut-out symbol boards on their head. They all danced behind one another in a circle to the sound of drums and men chanting. Wow,with the indians and the mesas, the buttes,the big sun and that sandy arid desert I thought I was in a foreign country.Worth a trip
