It's the first X I've seen in there, but maybe there have been others...

For my birthday last week, me, the wife and 2 dogs went to Canyon De Chelly and stayed in the pop up. Some of the most beautiful land there is.
This is an overlook of the canyon junction and Chinle river.

It's a muddy, sandy mix that has quicksand all over. We drove 20 miles through the canyon and crossed the river about 50 times back and forth on our way to view Anasazi ruins. We were guided by a Navajo medicine man who has lived in the area his entire life.
The amazing thing is that he knew every spot that was quicksand and would direct us "cross here now!" and "cut across here and then swing around to the right a bit and then over there" It was incredible, because it all looked the same to us. Then we saw a Jeep try to cross wherever he wanted and started sinking - FAST! Luckily there was a Unimog that the Navajo's use for tours that was able to pull him out.
It was pretty scary trusting our guide and one time he wasn't paying attention and we got too close to an area, but other than that, we just barrelled through.
