The Desert Speaks

Navajo Canyon Lands (19x10)

Air date: Feb 17, 2011

The creation of Lake Powell forced the evacuation of many Navajo families and forever changed the lives of many others. Today, host David Yetman and his brother, geologist Dick Yetman, travel with native Navajo families to learn some of the geological and spiritual history of the Glen Canyon region. They travel through the region’s many slot canyons, visit the sacred Rainbow Bridge, enjoy birds-eye view from the air, and visit with a Navajo photographer and young Navajo woman who is documenting the histories of her elders.
