Long day: Santa Fe to Chaco Culture National Historical Park then to Durango, Colorado. The last few miles to Chaco Canyon were an adventure: unpaved, washboard dirt road for 13 miles. But what a cool place! This is a shot of a portion of the huge “Pueblo Bonito” site.
In Durango, we stayed at the Doubletree Hotel in a comfy corner room with a patio overlooking the Animas River.
