Shiprock at Sunset, New Mexico

Pink clouds fill the sky above Shiprock, a prominent peak in northwestern New Mexico. Shiprock is located on Navajo land and is sacred to the tribal people. They call it the "Rock with Wings," for they believe a bird guided them from the North to settle in the present-day Four Corners area of the United States. Early European settlers thought it looked more like a sailing schooner and named it Shiprock.
