We left Blue Spruce RV Park in Bayfield, Colorado and arrived at Mesa Verde NP on Tuesday, July 10th. We stayed at Mesa Verde for two nights at Morefield Park Campground (full hookups and great views!) Saw lots of wildlife and viewed many Pueblo cliff dwellings. Star gazing was incredible!!
On Wednesday, we took a Ranger guided tour of the Long House, which was a fantastic look at how the Pueblos lived about 800 years ago. Ranger Abby was outstanding in providing facts and answering questions.
Below are a few pictures from our visit to Mesa Verde NP...Enjoy!
