Yei-Bi-Chei Rocks & Totem Pole - Navajo Nation, Monument Valley, AZ - The Totem Pole is a 300-400' high scarlet rock formation that appears to be a replica of a totem pole. The Yei-Bi-Chei resembles a holy figure among the Navajo people. In fact, distinguished Navajo men dress as Yei-Bi-Cheis and dance for healing purposes in a very sacred nine day ceremony called the "Night Way Ceremony". the Yei-Bi-Chei rock formation appears to have a line formation of several different Yei-Bi-Chei dancers.
