Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument, NM
This was an incredible monument with such a great slot canyon hike! What they are referring to as “tent” rocks are hoodoos made from igneous rock and through erosion have become visible to us. Many of these tent rocks had giant boulders balancing on top of them which is a pretty incredible sight!

We ended up going to Valles Caldera since it was so close and we wanted to see the source of the volcanic eruption that had created and helped form all those amazing caveats we saw at Bandelier National Monument.

Since Los Alamos and Bandelier are so close to one another we arrived at the campground in good time even after making some stops along the way. We even had enough time to take a hike!

We arrived at Great Sand Dunes National Park on a very windy afternoon. The sun was out and it was a lovely temperature but when we thought of exploring the sand dunes in high winds, it didn’t sound too appealing. Instead we decided to hang out in the campground, let the girls play, relax and catch up on some internet stuff like this blog. Internet is fairly hard to come by so we try to take advantage when we do have it.
