   "There is only one main road through the valley, US 163, which links Kayenta,   
   AZ with US 181 in Utah. The stretch approaching the AZ/UT border from the   
   north is the most famous image of the valley, and possibly of the whole   
   Southwest - a long straight empty road leads across flat desert towards the   
   1,000 foot high stark red cliffs on the horizon, curving away just in front.   
   The highway cuts through the mesas at Monument Pass, near which several dirt   
   tracks leave both east and west and criss-cross the red sandy landscape,   
   offering a more close up appreciation of the rock formations."

   On the web site is a description of the 17-mile DIRT road that can be   
   driven after paying an entrance fee for the Navajo Park area.
