These photos are of Canyon X, just outside of Page Arizona. Canyon X is carved out of the Navajo Sandstone, as is Antelope. X is located in the same drainage as Antelope, but is a ways upstream. The canyon, like Antelope, is on the Navajo Nation. It's private land run by a Navajo family. Overland Canyon Tours is the only tour company permitted to enter into Canyon X.

Canyon X and Cardiac are also home to quite a few different animals. In the canyons you have the chance of seeing great horned owls, snakes, lizards, porcupines on rare occasion, bobcats on rare occasion, and coyotes. Below I've added a few pictures of some of the wildlife I've been fortunate enough to come across and photograph.
