Our last hike in the Cortez area was back in the Canyons of the Ancients. We had such a great hike in Sand Canyon that we wanted to explore Rock Canyon and East Rock Canyon which we had seen part of on our return trip in Sand Canyon. Another fab day as you can see. Rock Canyon was lovely but we saw no traces of ruins there so we moved on to East Rock Canyon where we saw a couple more ruins and this awesome arch!! Yes, there are 7 pics of the arch as I thought I had to put that many on to do it justice;)
This post will bring me up to date;) Let's see what we can find in Gallup, NM!!
