Chaco is just far enough away from civilization that not many people make the trip out to the intriguing New Mexico canyons.  It was a cultural epicenter for the Ancient Puebloans, who likely flocked to Chaco for rituals, trade, and spiritual enlightenment. 

Chaco Canyon offers adventures for people of all abilities.  Many of the archeological wonders lie directly adjacent to a road that runs through the canyon.  For individuals who are a little more adventuresome, the National Park Service has done a great job of NOT running roads out to sites on top of the canyon walls.
