A few years ago I got to go to Chaco with some of my best friends and had a truly wonderful time. We camped just outside the park and took this hike along the upper trail. There is a long and a short way round. We had meant to take the short route, but accidentally took the long one. It turned out to have been a great mistake. from this trail you can get an aerial view of each of the pueblos, it’s fantastic. In order to get to it though, you have to climb up this narrow canyon.
Also, if you get the chance to go to Chaco, you should check out their nighttime astronomy meets

Thanks very much, and I’m glad you’ve come by to check it out. My style is always a work in progress, thanks for letting me know I’m headed in the right direction
Wow, what a spectacular shot!
Beautiful photo!
I LOVED Chaco. We camped at the little campground, and we hiked up to the upper Pueblo, through that narrow canyon that you mentioned. It was so beautiful there. We didn’t check out their astronomy program though, guess I’ll just have to go back!
Striking contrast of colors in the rock! Good info for a future visit.
Nice juxtaposition. It has that Scylla and Charybds effect.
great photos! Thanks for liking my blog. Maybe I’ll get there one day.
Sorry if I double posted – this is so breathtaking! Thank you for your like on my comics! http://mistergkids.wordpress.com/
I love the BW background! After living in NM for a dozen years and never making it to Chaco, I returned to do some research last year and spent time at Chaco last March (about this time). While I’m still sorting through my several hundred photographs looking for the best ones to print on canvas, your image surely gives me the motivation to do so! What a great image.
Thanks for liking my post.
