Sacred Mountain 11/12/2007

The ranger at Montezuma Well had suggested this as a nice hike so we came back up north to see what it was like. The mountain is not very high and the hike up is not too strenuous so you can enjoy it and still have time to do other things in the area if you wish.

The top is covered with ruins of ancient dwellings and pot shards. This is also one of the few sights in North America that had a ball field similar to those of the Aztecs although we did not seem to be able to see where it had been.
