NM True TV Kasha Katuwe Tent Rocks
This national monument offers a relatively easy hike to a surprisingly stunning overlook. The tent rocks are cones of volcanic material worn into their unusual shapes over eons. And the trip to the top includes a slot canyon and multiple stops you will have to make to pull out your camera. #NewMexicoTRUE
Tent Rocks National Monument, New Mexico
Our last major adventure on our Honeymoon road trip lead us to Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument in New Mexico. This place was absolutely beautiful! It's a wonderful area to hike with awesome scenic views of the rocks and canyon. We did not get to finish the complete trail but I'd highly recommend doing it if you can. We'd love to go back and try it again since Abby had a bum leg that day. One of New Mexico's hidden gems!!

A portion of the 5-mile access road to the national
monument crosses Pueblo de Cochiti tribal land. Along with the pueblo, neighbors in the vicinity include the Santo Domingo Indians, the Jemez Indians, private landowners, the Santa Fe National Forest and State of New Mexico.

Exotic cone-shaped formations in a National Monument. The cone-shaped tent rock formations are the products of volcanic eruptions that occurred 6 to 7 million years ago and left pumice, ash and tuff deposits over 1,000 feet thick. Tremendous explosions from the Jemez volcanic field spewed pyroclasts (rock fragments), while searing hot gases blasted down slopes in an incandescent avalanche called a pyroclastic flow. In close inspections of the arroyos, visitors will discover small, rounded, translucent obsidian (volcanic glass) fragments created by rapid cooling
A Guide to Tent Rocks Natl Monument - Ashwin Enjoys Nature
This NM in NM encompasses everything that makes this state the Land of Enchantment. This park is so nice, it was named twice. It's also called Kasha Katuwe...which in Spanish, means nothing, because it is a Pueblo Keresan word.

Tent Rocks - New Mexico
An experiment working within the limits of an iPhone.
The Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument is a remarkable outdoor laboratory, offering an opportunity to observe, study, and experience the geologic processes that shape natural landscapes. The national monument, on the Pajarito Plateau in north-central New Mexico, includes a national recreation trail (see Activities below) and ranges from 5,570 feet to 6,760 feet above sea level.
The cone-shaped tent rock formations are the products of volcanic eruptions that occurred 6 to 7 million years ago and left pumice, ash and tuff deposits over 1,000 feet thick. Tremendous explosions from the Jemez volcanic field spewed pyroclasts (rock fragments), while searing hot gases blasted down slopes in an incandescent avalanche called a pyroclastic flow. In close inspections of the arroyos, visitors will discover small, rounded, translucent obsidian (volcanic glass) fragments created by rapid cooling. Please leave these fragments for others to enjoy.
Precariously perched on many of the tapering hoodoos are boulder caps that protect the softer pumice and tuff below. Some tents have lost their hard, resistant caprocks and are disintegrating. While fairly uniform in shape, the tent rock formations vary in height from a few feet to 90 feet.
As the result of uniform layering of volcanic material, bands of gray are interspersed with beige and pink-colored rock along the cliff face. Over time, wind and water cut into these deposits, creating canyons and arroyos, scooping holes in the rock, and contouring the ends of small, inward ravines into smooth semi-circles.

Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument & Slot Canyon
The National Monument is found on the Pajarito Plateau of north-central New Mexico.
The tent rock formations occurred 6 to 7 million years and are the result of volcanic eruption which occurred at that time.
Cave Loop Trail is 1.2 miles long and is an easy hike. Canyon Trail is a 1.5-mile, one-way trek into a narrow canyon ending in a steep (630-ft) climb to the top of the mesa where you find outstanding views of the Sangre de Cristo, Jemez, Sandia mountains and the Rio Grande Valley.
You are advised to have water for each member of your party. The visitor area is primitive. Park Staff diligently remove hikers from the mesa before the close of the park each day.

Vlog 15 A day at Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument
What a great place Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument was to visit, I spent the hole day there and really enjoyed it a lot. It was a long hike but well worth it. The hike up was 65 stories high
and had to climb up rock a rocky path and had to go though real skinny and tight passage. The rock formations really do look like tents or teepees, I would go back again. Oh!! I did get Naked at my van in the park...With Veggie Kale Blazer Kale is king of the garden. And when its dark, leafy greens are blended with cucumber, spinach, celery, and a pinch of ginger, you get a royal round table of yum that will help you take charge and rule the day. Long live the greens. Yes it was good :)

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Bandelier National Monument is a 33,677-acre (13,629 ha) United States National Monument near Los Alamos in Sandoval and Los Alamos Counties, New Mexico. The monument preserves the homes and territory of the Ancestral Puebloans of a later era in the Southwest. Most of the pueblo structures date to two eras, dating between 1150 and 1600 AD.
The Monument is 50 square miles (130 km2) of the Pajarito Plateau, on the slopes of the Jemez Volcanic field in the Jemez Mountains. Over 70% of the Monument is wilderness, with over one mile elevation change, from about 5,000 feet (1,500 m) along the Rio Grande to over 10,000 feet (3,000 m) at the peak of Cerro Grande on the rim of the Valles Caldera, providing for a wide range of life zones and wildlife habitats. There are three miles of road, and more than 70 miles of hiking trails. The Monument protects Ancestral Pueblo archeological sites, a diverse and scenic landscape, and the country's largest National Park Service Civilian Conservation Corps National Landmark District.
Bandelier was designated by President Woodrow Wilson as a National Monument on February 11, 1916, and named for Adolph Bandelier, a Swiss-American anthropologist who researched the cultures of the area and supported preservation of the sites. The park infrastructure was developed in the 1930s by crews of the Civilian Conservation Corps and is a National Historic Landmark for its well-preserved architecture. The National Park Service cooperates with surrounding Pueblos, other federal agencies, and state agencies to manage the park.

TENT ROCKS - Ancient Wonder of New Mexico
One of my most favorite places on Earth:
I lose myself every time I visit Tent Rocks. Walking through the slot canyon stirs me to life and instills ancient wisdom and magic. The stone has stood millions of years and I feel it's sacred antiquity when I pass between it's walls.
This national monument is located on the Pajarito Plateau in north-central New Mexico, and is roughly 5,570 feet to 6,760 feet above sea level. The cone-shaped or tent rock formations are the result of volcanic eruptions that occurred 6 to 7 million years ago and left pumice, ash and tuff deposits over 1,000 feet thick. Atop many of the tapering stone columns are boulder caps that protect the softer pumice and tuff below. Some columns have lost their caps and are slowly disintegrating, returning to Mother Earth.
