This language sounds great! I'd wish I could learn to speak it somewhere.

Wow, and all this time, I've lived there, I only knew the names of the rocks but not the meaning behind what their names mean. Thanks for sharing. I got to memorize each of the meaning.

[wobeck]

She shows a picture that is similar to a certain rock formation (such as toes) to show how the formation was named, and she reads the name in Navajo. Its about the names of the monuments, what they mean and how to say them.
