Exploring Indian Ruins in Utah







During the week of September 20-25, 2009 I went
on a trip to Southern East Utah. I experieced this
with two of my brothers, LeRoy and Russ. LeRoy
brought two of his grandchildren Austin, 13 and
Madeline, 11 who added a wonderful youthful
perspective to the outting. Russ and LeRoy are
rugged 4-wheel drive jeepers and we covered a
many miles of rough backroads from Highway 211
(North of Monticello) and near the Canyonlands
National Park. We visited a number of old Indian
Ruins (Anasazi) and one Cliff dwelling center. Young
Austin was our intrepid cliff climber who explored
the cliff side dwellings. I took many photos and
some video clips. This proved to be an enjoyable
time in some very beautiful terrain.
