MESA VERDE NATIONAL PARK - Sept.14, 2008

Today was our last day of planned activities.
We spent the day exploring the amazing Ancestral Puebloan ruins at Mesa verde NP.
After a stop at the Visitor Center, we proceeded to the meeting area for the ranger led hike to the Cliff Palace dwellings.







We were in a very large group for the hike.



Steve, Ed, Cis, Mert and Shirley listen to the ranger.

Steve and DG, Ed, Andrea, and a stranger who seemed to be following the same schedule as our group, as we exit the Cliff Palace.

After lunch, many of us participated in another ranger led hike - this time of Balcony House
Wilt climbing one of the ladders.

Back to camp for our final dinner.
