    Randy, I always enjoy your visits with the park rangers, the apple picking was interesting (they let Kayla pick and sample - nice). The pueblo restoration also very interesting to learn about. THANKS FOR TAKING US ALONG ON THE HIKE, . . . Mike

    We really need to get to NM. We enjoyed AZ so much the first of this month. Bad advice!!! DOH! Bears need that white bucket. LOL! I would fit right in at 5 foot tall. Neat procedure with the archeologist! WOW! Thanks for taking us along, Randy. Good tour!

    Hit this one (along with about 22 others) on a 3 1/2 week road trip back in the fall. Spent 2 nights camping there, and absolutely loved it (my brain hated the multiple multi-thousand-foot elevation gains and drops everyday while we were there, but that wasn't unexpected, and I managed fine) - my parents had never had such good skies for stargazing, and the coyote pups raised quite the obnoxious ruckus both nights right at 10:30 p.m., just as I was settled into my sleeping bag trying to drift off to sleep.🤣
    It was a very last minute decision to camp there, but somehow we still ended up with the absolute best campsite in the entire park (granted, it was a Tuesday - we were there 10/5-10/7) - very large, perfectly flat, almost perfectly level, and it was right across from the restrooms; I'm asking the new superintendent to turn it into a handicapped accessible site because it's already almost perfect (only a few tiny things need tweaking, and while I was able to work around those little things while we were there, I know that many of my fellow wheelchair users could not).
    It's nice to see the upper areas of the cliff dwellings, because a wheelchair can't get up that high because of the stairs. Glad I found your channel, because it means I now get to see those upper areas close up, not just from far below.

    Thanks for another great video/commentary. Hit a lot of parks in New Mexico over the years including Bandelier, Pecos & Chaco. At Pecos, I had an neat encounter. I was approaching a reconstructed kiva. Just as I was getting ready to descend when I heard voices below & backed off
    - soon, 3 young native Americans arose, 2 men & a beautiful lass. They glanced at me & one remarked, "hmm , white man!" paused and added. "red white man!" (I was very sun burnt). We all roared with laughter & I had another great story to tell. Thanks, as usual.

    • @AmericasParks
      @AmericasParks  4 года назад +2

      Yeah, it really was some "dark ages" - even darker when these folks kept no written history of their lives. The mystery makes it even more fascinating. You wonder why they did what they did. We can only make educated guesses!

  • @reneeh2050
    @reneeh2050 4 года назад

    Wow! What a neat place. I’m definitely going to have to do a trip to New Mexico to see all the cool stuff you’ve been showing in your vids.
    Were the ladders hot? I did the Badlands notch Trail. Going up was not a problem but it was 99 that day & the logs were pretty hot on the way down. Also, do you go down the same way you go up? Did you have to wait awhile for people ahead of you?

    • @AmericasParks
      @AmericasParks  4 года назад +1

      It was hot that day, but I don't remember the ladders being too bad. Kind of similar to the notch trail - think these were a bit easier as they were build away from the cliff. Same way up/down, but not too many folks there that day. Thanks!

    @RobertLWard 4 года назад

    Man, those ladders we climbed at Natural Bridges were nothing compared to these! I just blows me away as to how many different sites New Mexico has and how individual they all are. I probably do research every day in regards to my October trip.I actually found another one called" Prehistoric Trailways national Monument"( BLM) literally right next to another one I plan on seeing. New Mexico seems to have more places with" National" in front of it then anywhere else in the country and they are almost all small little sites. Hope the trip down south is going well( or went). Looking forward to a quick meet up soon as I cant wait to show you what I have for you....take care!
