The cloud level seems so different than normal - really dig it, feels like they could be tree stumps.
Now that you said that, I had to go back and look and totally agree with you. Thanks!

I had a similar experience when visiting in April: sunset marred by a rainy evening and low clouds that eventually burned off for sunrise. Thankfully able to do the valley drive the following day as the rains were not too bad. Definitely a location worthy of a two night stay to hedge bets against uncooperative weather.
I think I could have driven the valley too after the rain but just didn't want to take any chance getting stuck in soft sand.

Excellent set and description!
I was there for the first time 3 years ago. Me and about 8 other photographers were all set up for sunset at the overlook at the View Hotel. I looked behind me and saw "the cloud of doom" fast approaching from the west. The wind picked up big time with photographers grabbing their gear so as not to blow over. Then the rain came and we all hastily retreated back inside, me to my room. The storm passed eventually but I was all set up on the balcony and didn't want to go back to the overlook since the wind was still blowing. Anyway. I did come away with some, imho great photos of a double rainbow over one of the mittens.
The weather really didn't improve the next day with mostly scattered sunshine here and there. But was able to drive the Loop Rd. The next day when we were leaving? A massive hail storm hit! Wonder if I was being told something?!
We were supposed to go to Canyon de Chelly but decided to head home (Prescott area). But I did stop at one of my favorite photo places, Coal Mine Canyon outside of Tuba City....Show more →
Thank you. So much to see in that little area but limited time it's hard. Glad you enjoyed the set.

A great set of photos. But my favorite is no 5, where the buttes seem like pillars holding up the sky.
