Then the HOpi country will be visited with headquarters at the various trading posts and side trips to points of interest which will include brief stays at Hatavilla, Oriabi and Chapolavi where the snake dances are the attractions. Before leaving the Hopi territory the flute dances at Walpi and MashOngnovey will be viewed Tuba city is on the schedule and then Canyon de Chelley and Can yon del MuertO.
