Canyon de Chelley National Monument, Arizona:  23 June 2004

The canyon itself would be enough of an attraction, but the ruins built into the walls' natural niches provide a thoughtful perspective on life way back when.  The hike down to White House Ruins was easy and well worth it for the close-up view.  [29 photos]
