Chaco Culture National Historic Park

April 7&8, 2009
The Four Corners have so many ruins from the Anasazi, or pre-North American history ancient people. We don't know what they spoke, why they created such structures, or why they left, but X-Files says that it was aliens (one of the theories the ranger told us). The hub of this culture is found in the middle of nowhere New Mexico. Views from above show over 400 miles of thirty foot wide, straight roads that lead out from Chaco.



Goose found evidence of earlier elk in the valley.




The great thing about a National Historical Park is that Goose could hike the trails. The crack on the right is the trail to the top of the north mesa. It got wider.



Beans straight out of the fire.... for breakfast. Megan paid for my decision later.





Goose has a mad hiking skills!
