Anybody ever taken their syncro into the canyon? Cheers, Hermann de Boer >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> To drive on the canyon bottom, a 4-wheel drive vehicle, a Park Service permit and an authorized Navajo guide are required. The fee is $15 an hour for 1 vehicle, $5 an hour for each additional vehicle with a 5-vehicle limit per guide. I did this in late 1986 in my Toyota 4x4 pickup. We were n the canyon for 4 hours. I'm not sure if they will let a VW syncro do it. Besides 4x4 they also say high clearence is needed. The drive in in & along the river bottom & is very sandy & deep in places. You might Call, write or email them to see what they say. email ailema_benally@nps.gov write to Canyon de Chelly National Monument PO Box 588 Chinle, AZ 86503 phone 928-674-5500 Mike retired NPS Ranger 81 Westy __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
