Cool little stop on our way to Williams. We really enjoyed the free pamphlet that explained what everything was. This is free to explore. Cant wait to visit again once they have uncovered more.

This site is on the eastern side of Flagstaff. Take an hour to stop and go through as it is an easy walking path. Its hard to believe that water was an issue in this area. Read the information to see how they farmed and survived. It looks like there is continuing archeology work being done here.

Neat ruins near Flagstaff. Not as extensive as nearby Wupatki, but cool nonetheless. And free to visit.

A lot of great things to see to see where tribes lived and in such a beautiful area. Pottery, chirp and structural remaining is protected please leave it as it is. There is a nice hike nearby aswell

Awesome place to look at an ancient structure.

Review №31

Really neat. Self guided tour, but I think you have to pay for the map. I didnt see anyone that worked there & I was there on a Friday afternoon. We just walked around all the rooms & made up our own stories. Right next to road so the sound of traffic is pretty distracting but its cool to think they used that road to travel too, before it was paved and taken over by automobile.

For 40 years I have watched the exploration and stabilization of this wonderful place. A font of education about the people who lived here before us. People who witnessed Sunset Crater eruptions.

Review №48

Perfect for a self tour, educational pamphlets are at the front of the trail. No bathrooms though but its a short trail. It is an active archeological site. It is in an open area of Coconino National Forest so you might run across a few critters. Easy access from RT 66 on US 89. Loved reading and seeing Hopi history!

Review №55

Interesting but not exciting. The stones are obviously recreated. Still was worth a breaf stop along the way to Grand Canyon.

Review №56

Not a lot to it, by National Park standards, but for a small local historical site the signage provides ample information to see how our ancestors lived in this area centuries ago.

Review №57

American history often forgets to include indigenous peoples histories - take a moment to go here, its free, just to soak in a piece of American history not associated to European expansionism.
