Looking at the opposite hillside, you can get a sense of how challenging it can be for various plants to survive in this environment.
Along the trail, you can see how the early inhabitants terraced the land to conserve water and grow crops.
The trail provides a great view of the hillsides in Mesa Verde.
After cruising along the green shady creekbed, you take this mellow climb back up the the dry Mesa top.
