Antelope Canyon
Antelope Canyon, located near Page, Arizona, is famed for its wave-like, sandstone structure and light beams. The Canyon, formed by flash floods and winds, consists of two separate, Navajo-owned sections—Upper (“The Crack”) and Lower (“The Corkscrew”). The Navajo name for Upper Antelope Canyon is Tsé bighánílíní, which translates to "the place where water runs through rocks". In the Upper Antelope Canyon, the best time to capture the beams of light shining down into the canyon, is from March to October.

Stretching between Nova Scotia and New Brunswick in Canada, the Bay of Fundy is a 170 mile (270-km) ocean bay famous for its dramatic 52.5 foot (16-meter) tidal ranges that, at low tide, allow visitors to walk on the ocean floor and, at high tide, boat in the same area.

Mono Lake, California
Mono Lake is the second oldest alkaline lake of volcanic origin in North America. Those strange formations (tufa towers) rising up out of the lake are formed underwater when freshwater springs, rich in calcium carbonate, bubble up and interact with the lake's highly alkaline water.
