After calling off our hike when we ran out of time, Tom & I are back in this remote canyon in the desert Southwest. The ancient people were smart when it came to locating their desert dwellings. But they had to be. Google Earth unfortunately doesn't work in this area for looking into caves and alcoves. So we are backpacking to find this elusive ancient ruin. Thank you for subscribing and joining us on another ancient journey.
