I decided to follow the path to the top of the Mesa - a climb of about 250 vertical feet (but on a nice path with steps). Sadly, doing this at 7200 ft altitude to begin with, showed why athletes do altitude training 9or maybe i'm just a bit unfit!)
On top of the Mesa are the ruins of an Anasazi pueblo - built on the top for defence - i also learnt that "Anasazi" is actually Navajo for "ancient enemies". What was that quote about history being written by the victors.
I think I would get goosebumps [along with the hyperventilating] as I try to walk up. This is some site..
