Puye Cliff Dwellings
In the Tewa language Puye means "pueblo ruin where the rabbits assemble or meet." I think they still do to this day. This area was home for more than 1500 pueblo indians who built villages, farmed, and hunted game. They believed to have left when drought caused springs to dry up and crops to fail.

View of the canyon
Walking down the irrigation canal that was carved by the ancient indians.
Hiking down in flip flops not a good idea.
Beautiful view of the canyon
Time to hike up...
End of the tour
Saw cows hanging out on the way back to Santa Fe
