I know, I know. I almost post too many Wikipedia photos (and there will be a few more). But these I thought were really great in captivating the mood I think Arnâron should have.
First, the Antelope Canyon, which is located near Page, Arizona. Judging by these photos, it must be an eerie, beautiful site:

The second canyon of note is, of course, the Grand Canyon. I always felt that this looked like a very alien landscape, and I guess the association with Valles Marineris comes naturally. Except of course that the later is so big that you probably won’t even realize you’re in a canyon. Sometimes, less is more.

Neat, huh? I always wanted to see the Grand Canyon in person, I’ve today added Antelope Canyon to that wish-list.
