"700 years ago, the mass of rocks scattered [to the low right of the photo] was [a part of] a multi-room pueblo--home to a small community of Native Americans. There were at least fifteen rooms here, used for shelter and food storage. Most were connected by rock walls two to three feet thick. Some rocks seem to have been selected and perhaps shaped to fill specific spaces. Holes between rocks were likely sealed with mud mortar to keep out wind, rain and rodents. The roofs were probably flat-topped and made from poles, bark and sun-dried mud. People may have entered the pueblo through a doorway in one or more of the walls, or they may have descended a wooden ladder through an opening in the roof. Imagine for a moment, how would you build a stone house without concrete or modern tools? This pueblo was home to an active community of some twenty to thirty-five people. Here they cooked, made tools, held community meetings, told stories and played games. They likely traded with others from neighboring pueblos and perhaps far beyond. Studies at a nearby pueblo indicate the Lynx Creek ruin was occupied between 1150 and 1300 A.D. Charcoal remnants found here indicate the interior of the pueblo may have been destroyed by fire."

Sadly, the lookout rotted and so they sawed it off (picture 25). 😐
