Dwellings High
From Silver City take NM 152 to the Cliff Dwellings National Monument parking lot. The Dwellings are ancient ruins dating back to the 1300s. Easy one mile hike to the dwellings. There are two camp grounds close buy so this would be a nice week end outing. For the cache start at the dwellings parking lot, from there follow the pack trail. The trail to the cache a mexture of cottonwoods, willows with ponderosa mixed with pinuon and juniper on the hill side. Because of the multiple river crossings an extra pair of shoes is recomended. The cache is a 2 3/4 mile from the parking lot. The cache is a good old fashin hike, the last 3/4 mile is a steep climb.Take plenty of water. The cache contains the usuall treats. Down load image, sorry I couldn't get it any larger. Enjoy
