This is one of the major ruins on the Chapin Mesa Loop and will be the last photos I post from this trip to M.V. There is so much to see here and I hope I didn't overload you with views of the ruins!!

Really nice, jederick. I would love to go back there now that I am "into" photography.

Nice views of a place I want to return to one day. When we were there some Pueblo Indian children were running around in a part if the ruins we weren't allowed to explore - exercising their ancestral rights to the land. A fascinating place to explore.

I'll be darned, didn't know that policy was in place. Our first time their in the 1970's, everyone was allowed to walk into the ruins and explore. You weren't allowed to climb or do anything dumb and their were always rangers present. Times, policy's and attitudes change. Thanks for stopping by and commenting, Jean.
