Mesa Verde






At one point a coyote ran alongside our car. It was on Drew's side so I didn't get a picure, but he did.




At the visitor's center one gets information on various tours available, either ranger-guided or self-guided. We select a combination that costs $3 per person for the guided tour of Cliff Palace (Sorry, Balcony House -- next time) and the self-guided portions from the road, including various views of other cliff dwellings, pueblos, and Spruce House.


We wait for our allotted time for Cliff Palace. Going down is the easy part. Going up on the series of ladders wasn't as bad as I thought it might be. It was pretty easy for me, but there were a lot of old, portly Germans in our group.


My camera holds 350 pictures without an additional card and most of my shots were of Mesa Verde. Blogger doesn't let me download many, so I may move them to Facebook.


Anyway, I'll let the pictures tell the story.
