FREE CAMPING NEAR THE GREAT SAND DUNES! (AND EXPLORING MESA VERDE NATIONAL PARK)
➝ This Episode:
We are loving our time in Colorado! We start off this episode exploring Great Sand Dunes National Park and then head back to camp to show you a great free camping spot we found on Campendium. We stayed at San Luis State Wildlife Area and get this, we had free 50 amp hookups! They have a dump station on site as well but no water hookups. Not bad for free! We moved to Mesa Verde National Park next and had an absolute blast running around this park. It's safe to say it jumped into our top three National Parks! Jason also upgraded the control panels for our air conditioners; now we're able to control them remotely!

Anasazi, Ancient Native American Cultures, What Happened to the Anasazi of Mesa Verde / Chaco Canyon
Anasazi, Ancient Native American Cultures - What Happened to the Anasazi of Mesa Verde and Chaco Canyon?
There is a prevalent belief that the prehistoric Native American culture referred to as the Anasazi mysteriously disappeared from the southwestern United States. Here are the facts.
Who were the Anasazi? Across the deserts and mesas of the region known as the Four Corners, where Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah meet, backcountry hikers and motoring tourists can easily spot reminders of an ancient people. From the towering stone structures at Chaco Culture National Historical Park to Cliff Dwellings at Mesa Verde National Park to the ubiquitous scatters of broken pottery and stone tools, these remains tell the story of a culture that spread out across the arid Southwest during ancient times. The Anasazi are believed to have lived in the region from about AD 1 through AD 1300, though the exact beginning of the culture is difficult to determine because there is no particular defining event.
In their everyday lives, they created black-on-white pottery styles that distinguish sub-regions within the culture. They traded with neighboring cultures, including those to the south in Central America. And they built ceremonial structures called kivas, which were used for religious or communal purposes.
Spanish conquistadors exploring the Southwest noted the abandoned Cliff Dwellings and ruined plazas, and archaeologists today still try to understand what might have caused the Anasazi to move from their homes and villages throughout the region.
Over time, researchers have posed a number of theories, including the idea that the Anasazi were driven from their villages by hostile nomads, such as those from the Apache or Ute tribes. Others believe that the Anasazi fought among themselves, causing a drastic reduction in their populations, and a few extra-terrestrial minded theorists suggested that the Anasazi civilization was destroyed by aliens.
Today the prevalent hypothesis among scientists is that a long-term drought affected the area, destroying agricultural fields and forcing people to abandon their largest villages. Scientists and archaeologists have worked together to reconstruct the region's climate data and compare it with material that has been excavated. Based on their findings, many agree that some combination of environmental and cultural factors caused the dispersal of the Anasazi from the large-scale ruins seen throughout the landscape today.
Although many writers of both fiction and nonfiction, romanticize the Anasazi as a people who mysteriously disappeared from the region, they did not actually disappear. Those living in large ancient villages and cultural centers did indeed disperse, but the people themselves did not simply disappear. Today, descendants of the Anasazi can be found living throughout New Mexico and Arizona. The Hopi tribe in Northern Arizona, as well as those living in approximately 20 Pueblos in New Mexico, are the modern-day descendants of the Anasazi. The Pueblos in New Mexico whose modern inhabitants consider the Anasazi their ancestors include: Acoma, Cochiti, Isleta, Jemez, Laguna, Nambe,Picuris, Pojoaque, San Felipe, San Ildefonso, Ohkay Owingeh (formerly referred to as San Juan), Sandia, Santa Ana, Santa Clara, Santo Domingo, Taos, Tesuque, Zia, and Zuni.
The term Anasazi is actually a misleading moniker, as it is a Navajo word meaning “enemy ancestors”, which is obviously offensive to the Anasazi descendants. Today, Native Americans and archaeologists prefer to use “pre- Puebloan” to refer to the ancient inhabitants of the Four Corners.

SUMMARY
=======
Mesa Verde National Park is an American national park and UNESCO World Heritage Site located in Montezuma County, Colorado. The park protects some of the best-preserved Ancestral Puebloan archaeological sites in the United States.
Established by Congress and President Theodore Roosevelt in 1906, the park occupies 52,485 acres (21,240 ha) near the Four Corners region of the American Southwest. With more than 5,000 sites, including 600 cliff dwellings, it is the largest archaeological preserve in the United States. Mesa Verde (Spanish for green table) is best known for structures such as Cliff Palace, thought to be the largest cliff dwelling in North America.
Starting c. 7500 BCE, Mesa Verde was seasonally inhabited by a group of nomadic Paleo-Indians known as the Foothills Mountain Complex. The variety of projectile points found in the region indicates they were influenced by surrounding areas, including the Great Basin, the San Juan Basin, and the Rio Grande Valley. Later, Archaic people established semi-permanent rockshelters in and around the mesa. By 1000 BCE, the Basketmaker culture emerged from the local Archaic population, and by 750 CE the Ancestral Puebloans had developed from the Basketmaker culture.
The Mesa Verdeans survived using a combination of hunting, gathering, and subsistence farming of crops such as corn, beans, and squash. They built the mesa's first pueblos sometime after 650, and by the end of the 12th century, they began to construct the massive cliff dwellings for which the park is best known. By 1285, following a period of social and environmental instability driven by a series of severe and prolonged droughts, they abandoned the area and moved south to locations in Arizona and New Mexico, including Rio Chama, Pajarito Plateau, and Santa Fe.

Road trip along Apache Trail and seeing cliff dwellings at Tonto National Monument (#12/419)
Dating from 1250CE to 1450CE, the cliff-dwellings and artifacts at Tonto National Monument shed light on how the Salado people might have lived. That was our main stop along the Apache Trail whole-day road trip. Also, on our way to our boondocking spot near Tortilla Flats, the road was overflowing and we had to drive over it with our travel trailer.
Stick around for bloopers!
???? In the video, we mention our favorite resource for planning road trips: a book called Most Scenic Drives in America which includes 120 spectacular road trips. We have had the book for many years and have done multiple itineraries from the book and we have never been disappointed. It even survived downsizing from 4-bed house to a 21ft travel trailer :) Check it out here (Amazon affiliate link, see disclosure at the bottom):

Florissant Fossil Beds, Colorado, United States
Florissant Fossil Beds, Colorado 2005
The Florissant Fossil Bed National Monument is a national monument located in Teller County, Colorado. The location is famous for the abundant and exceptionally preserved insect and plant fossils that are found in the mudstones and shales of the Florissant Formation. Based on argon radiometric dating, the formation is Eocene (approximately 34 million years old ) in age and has been interpreted as a lake environment. The fossils have been preserved because of the interaction of the volcanic ash from the nearby Thirtynine Mile volcanic field with diatoms in the lake, causing an algal bloom. As the algae fell to the bottom of the lake, any plants or animals that had recently died were preserved by the algal mats. Fine layers of clays and muds interspersed with layers of ash form paper shales holding beautifully-preserved fossils.

Surviving Columbus (Parts 1 and 2)
Late one afternoon in May 1539, the world of the Pueblo Indians changed forever when Estebanico - a Black slave from Morocco - and his 300 retinue of Mexican Indians marched into the Zuni city of Hawikuh. Through wild tales and exaggerations, Hawikuh would be transformed into one of the fabled Seven Golden Cities of Cibola, and a year later, Coronado and his soldiers would wreak destruction and violence on this peaceful world in search of non existent gold. Surviving Columbus is a search for the Pueblo people's view of these first encounters with European civilization, told exclusively through the voices and visions of the Pueblo Indians.
10 Must Visit Tourist Attractions in the United States
For all intents and purposes, the United States can almost be considered an entire continent in itself. This means that a person from another country can’t come, visit for several days or a week, and say that he or she has seen what the entire US is all about. But there are several landmarks that every traveler needs to see before they can even begin to consider checking the US off of their travel bucket list. Even though there are plenty to choose from, and these are presented in no particular order, here are 10 must-visit tourist attractions in America.

Excursion - the art of interpreting the cultural heritage. Lecture Magdalena Banaszkiewicz
CHERNOBYL TOUR Guides' Club with the Cultural and Arts Center of the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy present a research project – lecture of Magdalena Banaszkiewicz (Jagiellonian University, Krakow)
Excursion - the art of interpreting the cultural heritage.
Tourist guide is one of the key figures in the processing of cultural heritage to the public values. This happens through a process called cultural interpretation. This is not just the translation of actual information, but the kind of educational activity that creates the meanings and connections, based on the original objects, through direct experience and illustrative means. This approach will be illustrated by the example of tours to such a controversial place of world heritage as Chernobyl exclusion zone.
Magdalena Banaszkiewicz is a cultural anthropologist, Assistant Professor at the Institute of Intercultural Studies at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow, lecturer at Andrzej Frycz Modrzewski Krakow University and visiting professor at the University of Rochester (USA), University of Milan (Italy), University of Sophia (Bulgaria), the European University Viadrina (Germany).

SUMMARY
=======
Great Smoky Mountains National Park is an American national park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site that straddles the ridgeline of the Great Smoky Mountains, part of the Blue Ridge Mountains, which are a division of the larger Appalachian Mountain chain. The border between Tennessee and North Carolina runs northeast to southwest through the centerline of the park. Great Smoky Mountains is the most visited national park in the United States with over 11.3 million recreational visitors in 2016. The Appalachian Trail passes through the center of the park on its route from Maine to Georgia. The park was chartered by the United States Congress in 1934 and officially dedicated by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1940.
The park encompasses 522,419 acres (816.28 sq mi; 211,415.47 ha; 2,114.15 km2), making it one of the largest protected areas in the eastern United States. The main park entrances are located along U.S. Highway 441 (Newfound Gap Road) at the towns of Gatlinburg, Tennessee, and Cherokee, North Carolina. Great Smoky Mountains was the first national park whose land and other costs were paid for in part with federal funds; previous parks were funded wholly with state money or private funds.

==================
EPISODE 6 SUMMARY
==================
The four Corners region of Colorado, Wyoming, Arizona and Utah along with traces of advanced civilizations living in the Marfa, Texas region, are affiliated with the name Atzlan, as depicted on the Mayan Codex [name of codex in Mexico City Museum Bourouli?]. According to legend, four divine brothers hailing from Atzlan migrated south to Mexico, with Tenochtitlan becoming the final Aztec capital which was destroyed by the Spanish under Cortez in 1521.
Who were these mysterious four brothers and how do the Native American races and lore connect to the Mexica who later became known as the Aztecs: Could the four corners’s civilization or the Marfa, Texas ancestors be linked to the wandering sage Kokopelli, subsequently connecting Atzlan to the legendary island to Atlantis?
