Ancient cliff dwellings at Mesa Verde, Colorado

I wrote a post about the cliff dwellings but seem to have lost it.  Here are the pictures.

The best part was the hike to the petroglyphs.

The trail went up, down, over, under, and around.

This tree has to shimmy up the mountain, too. It grew straight out and then up.
