How lucky we are! Some parts of the Mesa Verde National Park are already closed. We really wanted to go to the Wetherill Mesa area but it has already been shut down for the season.
However just our luck today was the WETHERILL MESA BIKE AND HIKE EVENT. The event opens the tram road and area for only hikers and bicycles. This Mesa is a long narrow peninsula of land surrounded by deep canyons. There are several cliff houses located there and also the Badger House Community.
So for today's adventure we hiked to Long House, Step House & part of the Badger House Community. Again another long day of moderately strenuous hiking up and down ladders, transversing 130-foot elevation changes with steep climb outs. ALL WELL WORTH THE EFFORT!!!
