I spent days exploring deep into the desert canyons of America searching for ancient ruins when I came across something I still can’t fully explain.
High above the canyon floor, ancient stone structures were built directly into the cliffs in places that seem almost impossible to reach. To get closer, I climbed the massive sandstone walls following ancient handholds and tiny Moki steps carved directly into the rock.
What I found above completely changed the way I looked at this place.
Ancient rooms, stone walls, cliff dwellings, carved steps and evidence of incredible engineering were hidden high above the desert. How did ancient people build and travel through terrain like this hundreds of years ago, and why did they choose locations so difficult to access?
This adventure takes me deep into the American Southwest searching for lost history, ancient civilizations, archaeological sites, Native American ruins, cliff dwellings and some of the most mysterious ancient engineering I’ve ever encountered.
Please respect and protect ancient sites. Never remove
artifacts, disturb structures or damage rock art.
