This area is covered with inscriptions on the rocks first placed by the indigeous people of the area and later by the Spanish settlers who followed the custom. The Spanish inscriptions are easier to recognize because they typically used crosses.

The park has a beautiful ranger station with lots of guidebooks, maps, and interesting information about the National Monument. The day that I was there, two local Native Americans were making drums from logs right on the property.

It was about 100 F the morning that I began my hike. I was imagining falling and breaking a leg and then dying of thirst stranded in the hot sun!

I never could figure out why the sky was so huge in New Mexico. Every where I went I would look up in awe of the vastness of the sky over the desert.

MountainLaurel Thu Aug 25, 2005 00:43 UTC Zrim's comment made me laugh because I DID have a panic attack on the cable car--but it was worth it once we got to the top! Now I just drive to the crest instead. | Pawtuxet Sun Jul 11, 2004 16:01 UTC We saw the tram. I decided I would stay on the ground, thank you very much! :-) | zrim Fri Jul 9, 2004 20:45 UTC I think I'd have a panic attack on the cablecar. I agree that Albequerque is a neat place--especially at dinner time. |
