Pictures from May 29th

After returning from our Grand Canyon hike we had some beers and steak! The following day we took a drive towards Flagstaff and did some exploring... Molly's roommate told us that we should go see the Wupatki Ruins... Felbie made the comment while we were there; "The village that I grew up in is actually older than these ruins." :)

Near the first ruins we saw I found this guy...
Part of the ruins... and the landscape surrounding us...
Near the main ruins... this was where games were held...
The main Wupatki Ruins... (near the visitor center)
Next we stopped by Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument...
You can't hike up the volcano anymore because it is all loose stone and would erode too much or something to that effect... see the dark line within the gray stone? That is where a trail used to be.
You can still see the old trail up the volcano here too... (the dark lines).
It was a nice day... we ended it at a brewery in Flagstaff after looking at a craft fair in Flagstaff and browsing multiple outdoor shops.
