and take you to hundreds of ancestral Puebloan
ruins, including those at major sites like Mesa Verde
and Chaco Canyon. Learn where to see traditional
tribal dances, how to gain access to tribal lands off -
limits to most visitors, and which tribes open their
homes to the public during feast days. There’s also
information on trading posts and Native American
guides, plus you’ll learn about the Hopi, Zuni, Kaibab,
Ute, Apache, Navajo, and Puebloan tribes.
