N.M.: Bandelier National Monument getaway

(March 2, 2017) -- In 1880, Adolph Bandelier arrived in the New Mexico Territory to document the culture of the Pueblo people and their ancestors. Traveling up the Rio Grande and through sheer-walled canyons, he emerged on the rim of Frijoles Canyon and looked down on the remains of ancestral Pueblo dwellings. In his diary Bandelier wrote that it was “the grandest thing I ever saw.”
