Another ancient dwelling stop, Chimney Rock National Monument. The naturally occurring rock formations are impressive and it is certainly easy to see why they have been landmarks for centuries. Scattered among the formations and half buried in sage brush and pine forest are hundreds of ancient dwellings. Atop the rocky outcropping is a Chacoan Great House. We have seen a few of them now so are probably not as easily impressed but this sure is an impressive setting with spectacular views. Access is by escorted, paid tour only. The $12 each seemed a bit high but I’d say it is a worthwhile stop.
