Grand Adventure Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 It's been a while since I posted one of our video TRs here, but Mesa Verde is such a special place that I feel compelled to do so. We found stellar boondocking on USFS land for just about any size rig on Madden Peak Road in Mancos, just 15 minutes from the main entrance to Mesa Verde. For those who may be unaware, Mesa Verde is a collection of ancient Puebloan cliff dwellings and we tour Cliff Palace, the largest cliff dwelling in North America that dates back to 1190 AD. The craftsmanship that these people exhibited in building these small villages is nothing short of remarkable, and it's a testament to that craftsmanship that these residences are largely still standing over 800 years later. If you do visit Mesa Verde, by all means sign up for one of the tours. That way you get to view the dwellings up close, rather than just from a distance from the canyon rim. You also gain fascinating insight from the explanations the ranger gives during your one-hour tour. OK, without further ado here's the video: Marc Guido Cottonwood Heights, UTYouTube.com/GrandAdventure | GrandAdventure.tv 2016 Evo by Forest River T2050 (26') 2014 Toyota Tundra SR 4x4 Extended Cab long bed 5.7L V8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
