Tuzigoot is fun to say. Try it! It means "crooked water". We are learning lots on this trip. Another interesting tidbit is that the inhabitants of Tuzigoot accessed rooms not by door but by ladder, entering rooms trapdoor style. Superfans of this blog may reconize some of the photos below. We visited Montezuma's castle on our 2016 roadtrip. Looks like the park rangers are taking good care of it. Keep up the good work, NPS! While at Montezuma's castle, a park ranger recommended that we take a short drive over to Montezuma Well, a site we didn't visit in 2016. We were grateful for the recommendation, and we enjoyed our time at Montezuma Well. The well is a natural limestone sinkhole that fills from an underground spring. If you look closely you can see the cliff dwelings of the Sinagua people.
