Susent Crater Volcano National Monument and Wupatki National
Monument are so closely linked that it is hard to visit one without visiting
the other. However, as I drove toward
Wupatki the environment changed dramatically from forest to desert. Off in the distance I could see painted
desert sands.
The literature provided by the park service said that this
site may have housed up to 100 Ancestral Puebloans. These ancient peoples lived
in the Four Corners Region and occupied the cliff dwelling at Navajo National
Mounment, Mesa Verde, Chaco Canyon and Walnut Canyon as well as here.
Here is a close up of the ball court.
I also visited the nearby Wukoki Pueblo.

What a beautiful place, and what stunning photos of it! I'm so glad to get to enjoy it vicariously.
Olivia, thank you. I think I am ready to start blogging again. I have been watching your blog as well and see that your little buddy has is no longer a puppy but still so cute.
