Bandelier

On President's Day, Russ and I went to visit Bandelier National Monument. We spent 2+ hours hiking around the area to see the different pueblos that were inhabited hundreds of years ago.





Here's a structure that was attached to a cave in the rock face.



Russ climbing into a cave.


A picture he took from inside it.


Here I am in one of the cave windows.


The remains of an ancient dwelling.



Here's the first ladder that Russ and I climbed to get to an ancient dwelling.


And here's the 2nd ladder we had to climb.


We made it up to the cave and found another cave dug underneath it.


 

These deer see so many visitors throughout the year that they let us get incredibly close to them.
