Sunrise from the Balcony

Arrived at Mesa Verde National Park yesterday - spent the day seeing the sights. Today I got a very special treat - no not that (well that too) - one of the rangers here had arranged for a special permit to get into one of the more spectacular cliff dwellings - Balcony House - at sunrise - something only rangers and VIPs can do. I was able to worm my way into the special event. Below are views of Balcony House rarely seen by mere mortals like me.









Thank you again for the opportunity Ellyse, Brooke, Pete, Jeff, Kevin and Gwen.
