First part of the ruins. "Trail" goes around to the right. The ruins go on for over 200 yards on a shelf of rock 300 feet above the canyon floor. In some places the trail is 1 foot wide.

My family inside a perfectly preserved Kiva. We found several pottery shards and artifacts (that we left).

We've been to the Blanding area a few times, but we've never explored it in depth. I guess we have to re-add that to our list of places to go. Great pics! Thanks!

I hiked in Mesa Verde many years ago and those runes are awsome
