This lump of dirt is covering the structure of a Navajo hogan. On the back country tour of the Monument Valley we stopped at this hogan. A family chooses to live here to keep touch with the old ways. The kids must walk two miles to school and more if they miss the bus that brings them close to their home. Often they will leave two hours before school in order to be on time. The family was warm and welcoming and the hogan light and airy - not what I expected. Quite a treat.
