Even though we were not able to complete most of the trip, we did manage to take care of one thing that has been on my must-do list for years. The area in and about Four Corners was heavily used by the Anasazi in centuries past and the evidence of their occupation is significant and often very difficult to find. For the energetic and curious hiker, however, there is much to be discovered. Many of the roads that led to hiking trails were difficult and only 4WD or ATVs were able to make it. The highlight of the trip was the visit to Keet Seel in the Navajo National Monument. It is one of the largest and most well preserved sites in the south west. Visiting the site can only be accomplished by an 18.5 mile round trip hike which involves a 1,000 foot descent into the canyon. The land on which Keet Seel sits is in the Navajo Nation and there are no roads to the site. Below are a few pictures of the adventure.
