Wupatki National Monument, Arizona March 2006
A cold March afternoon greeted us as
we arrived at Wupatki National Monument, where the ancient red stone walls of
Wupatki Pueblo rose from the high desert beneath a sky filled with passing snow
showers. The weather only added to the atmosphere. The dramatic clouds, crisp
air, and empty landscape made it feel as though we had stepped back nearly a
thousand years to when this remarkable pueblo was home to hundreds of people.
