A personal guided tour by owner Brantley Baird and his ranchhand, Clem Rogers, on a portion of the former Hashknife Ranch, which at one time was one of the largest in the US. Included are a museum of ranch life, a Navajo hogan and sheep pen, a prehistoric map of the region carved on a flat stone, and thousands of petroglyphs carved on the walls of a hidden canyon filled with water, wildlife and vegetation in the midst of the Arizona high desert.

The video begins with views of Spider Rock, an 800 foot sandstone tower, and nearby sections of Canyon de Chelly. The next segment, beginning with Black Mesa in the distance, shows the view of White House Ruin from the Canyon Rim. The remainder of the video shows the trail down to White House Ruin (the only trail open to visitors without a Navajo guide), the White House Ruin itself, and the views from the trail coming back out of the Canyon. The Ruin was built by the Anasazi people. The graffiti on the walls were recorded by assorted vandals, from the Spanish conquistadores to the present.
