Dig this!

We put on our archaeology pants and went to see an Anasazi site.  Barbara tantalized us with pictures of this hidden wonder,  and Charlene found us some directions.

You don't need a 4-wheel drive, but high-clearance would be good so your bottom doesn't drag on the ground.  I got out at the rough parts and dragged my own bottom across to let the Prius rise a little higher.

CAVE!

Annie and Charlene got ahead of me while I chatted.

The following are holes:

Holes and cliff.

Four holes.




Use your good driving sense here and watch the sand. It was a pretty accessible place on foot, although I was glad to have my stick.

Another cave?

We bade Charlene TTFN, since we'll all be leaving within a day or two.  Quartzsite has been a lot more than I expected it to be, and we've stayed a lot longer than I expected us to.
