Went to my happy place today. The light wasn’t optimal. But the silence was incredible. #wupatkinationalmonument #northernarizona #ruins #arizonahighways #instagramaz https://www.instagram.com/p/CoRVTwBsdLQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

One last photo of my “second father” taken, this time, in Arizona at ruin not far from Tuba City at Wupatki National Monument. There are so many sites the ancient Puebloan People left behind as reminders of their civilizations. This photo of Fred framed by the ruins and natural formations is a nice way of saying goodbye to my “second father.”• • #SecondFather #WupatkiNationalMonument #Arizona #AncientPuebloans #TubaCity #SpringVacation1993 https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ_8uMcFJe6/?igshid=1ephu6qoxwxm4

Spent some time in one of my favorite places. Huge concentration of remnants from past cultures in a beautiful setting. This NM is hugely undervisited. You should go. Support our national monuments.

This is one of the most magic places I visited in Arizona: Wupatki ruins - a sacred Native American site! The many settlement sites scattered throughout the monument were built by the Ancient Pueblo People, more specifically the Cohonina, Kayenta Anasazi, and Sinagua. Wupatki was first inhabited around 500 AD. Wupatki, which means "Tall House" in the Hopi language, is a multistory Sinagua pueblo dwelling comprising over 100 rooms and a community room and the northernmost ballcourt ever discovered in North America, creating the largest building site for nearly 50 miles. A major population influx began soon after the eruption of Sunset Crater in the 11th century (between 1040 and 1100), which blanketed the area with volcanic ash, improving agricultural productivity and the soil's ability to retain water. By 1182, approximately 85 to 100 people lived at Wupatki Pueblo, but by 1225, the site was permanently abandoned. #wupatki #wupatkinationalmonument #arizona #visitarizona #nativeamerican #sacredsites #hopiland #usanationalparks #sinagua (at Wupatki National Monument) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7eFDjrFnNA/?igshid=uwglo372atmj
