Working before the big dust storm hit
The picture above is of the massive Navajo Fortress formation, a defensible piece of high ground that didn't work against the Spaniards. Where I am standing is called Massacre Cave, where the spaniards found much of a village and killed them.
The Mummy house is fascinating. Seen here from the overlook and then by telephoto. it is reputed to have been occupied for a thousand years--about twice the time Europeans have been settled in America. Can't help wondering who will be on the overlook taking pictures of the Los Angeles ruin.
One of the most famous sites is the White House ruin, seen first from the overlook and then closer by means of a telephoto lens. You can walk down to this one. I didn't--it's a three hour hike, all uphill...
