Mesa Verde National Park fire area
A couple years before we were there, a huge portion of the park was burned by a wildfire, and much of the rest of the park had been burned just a few years before that. This picture shows some of the landscape at the time.

But it was very interesting. PDRM0008.JPG Mesa Verde National ParkMore Mesa Verde ruins.
