Description
White House Ruins - Canyon de Chelly Tour by Debra Martz I first spent a day tour Canyon de Chelly from the 10 overlooks along the North Rim and South Rim drives. The White House ruins are the only ruins that you are allowed to hike to wiithout a Navajo permit or guide. The trail access is from the overlook located on the South Rim drive. I, however, opted to go on a Jeep tour of the canyon floor with a Navajo guide. The National Monument Visitors Center has a list of the approved guides into the canyon. Our guide, Dan, grew up in the area near White House ruins. He told us these ruins were named for the upper level with the white plaster by Lt James Simpson in 1849.
