​It is beautiful. I don't know if it is a Nat Geo. It was an email that I got from More.

Again, something I didn't know I had !! It's like once I send something, I toss the impression in the old brain wastebasket.

My apologies Joyce. I had to go back and look and the photos in question actually came from someone else. I'm sorry if I made you question your sanity. OOOOPS! I will be happy to forward them to you so you DO have them.

I believe that road that you are referring to is (or was, the have changed the route designation to Hwy 491) Hwy 666 from Gallup NM to Ship Rock NM and on up into CO. I've been on the road many a time and it looks very much like it.
