Our next stop at the Aztec Butte Trail is coming up quickly on your right.
If you are feeling up to it, this is a 1.7 mile round trip hike that will take you to some Ancestral Puebloan’s stone granary structures, with amazing views.
The granary was built roughly 800 years ago, around 1200 AD. And no, yes, the Puebloans are not Aztecs. The name comes from the Butte’s resemblance to the Pyramid of the Sun, a man-made structure built by the Aztecs in Mexico.
The trailhead is on your right, if you are interested.
