Our trip to the Anasazi Heritage Center started with a hike to the top of the campus to view the Dominguez and Escalante Pueblo sites and the to view the McPhee Reservoir from the highest point of the campus. We had Jeannette join us at the museum. Jeannette is a Pueblo woman who is friends of Crow Canyon and came to give us some insight into her culture and her lifestyle as a modern Pueblo Indian. We had great views of the McPhee Reservoir and the Sleeping Ute Mountain. The museum had great exhibits with artifacts from each era of the Pueblo people as well as a history of archeology in this part of the country. The photographs within the museum of the American Indians were stunning.
