The slot canyons of Page, Arizona are on Navajo lands. By law, only native Navajo can conduct business on the property.

It is strictly controlled by the Navajo Parks and Recreation Department, which serves to protect the area from overuse and preserve its history.

I knew most, if not all of these men by sight, some by name, a small handful I knew very closely, sharing laughs with them and their families over the years. Over the past 72 hours or so, I have had the privileged to watch first hand as the city of Prescott and the state of Arizona has been joined by the world in remembering and honoring these fallen firefighters.
