Intense hues color the desert along Tse'nikani Flat Mesa Rock Scenic Road (US 191) with rich, earthy tones. As you travel through the Navajo Nation Reservation, notice wheat-colored monoliths protruding from multi-colored canyons. The two-lane byway traverses the arid plains of the reservation dotted by sheep and cattle farms.

Your trip through the reservation on Tse'nikani Flat Mesa Rock Scenic Road (US 191) reveals a peaceful setting highlighted by impressive buttes and layered-sandstone cliffs that drop from fiery mesas. At Agua Sal and Chinle washes, and Lukachukai Creek, sparse, vibrant-green bushes flourish next to the polished-chrome silver water as it nourishes the arid land.
