A great hike along the cliff a few dozen feet below the mesa top, it went under several cool overhangs, up and down several natural staircases and through several narrow slots.

Spruce Tree House
So named, we learned, because to get there an early homesteader decided not to use the ropes his brother brought. Instead he ran and leaped off the cliff into a nearby spruce tree, clinging to the branches then climbing down into the dwelling. His brother, slightly less adventurous but a more skilled rancher, lassoed the tree, pulled it over to the cliff edge then climbed down.
so cool. I especially love this last one!
