Please see the first post on this trip for important details about this post.

One of the most amazing national parks, though not the most beautiful, is Mesa Verde National Park, which preserves the ruins of the cliff dwellings of the Anasazi civilization that mysteriously disappeared. We only had the morning and thus had very little time to look around, but we did manage to go on one of the cliff dwelling tours, which is definitely an amazing experience.
