The exteriors involving the fort itself and the renegade Indian agent's trading post were filmed at Corriganville, which is now a park in Simi Valley, California. Also a visit to Goulding's is the original trading post, which looks just like it did when it appeared in "Fort Apache" in 1948. Now a museum, it features memorabilia, the swinging saloon doors from "My Darling Clementine" as well as pages from Goulding's celebrated guestbook, in which John Wayne poignantly wrote in 1945, "Harry, you and I both owe these monuments a lot." You can get more information from the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park visitor center which is just across the line from Utah into Arizona. It charges a $5 per vehicle entrance fee but includes a museum of Navajo accomplishments, a large souvenier store and a small restaurant. The visitor center can arrange for you to take a tour on one of the buses that have permission to drive on the reservation. You can not take your car. Thank you for asking.

Apache, She Wore A Yellow Ribbon. 2000 Sq Miles is a lot to cover. Are any structures still visible?? That it. If I visit Monument Valley–where was the actual location of movies Ft.
