Montezuma Castle & Well

I went over to the Montezuma Castle which is located in Camp Verde, Arizona. The Sinagua farmers built this five-story, 20 room dwelling back between 1100 and 1300. The access is located about 100 feet above the valley. It is all closed off now as people were vandalizing it. I took a picture of a replica of the insides. Just amazing! When you look up at the wall you see holes, those are all the different rooms.

The park is a short walk, all paved so easy access for anyone. Since it was a quick viewing, I headed over to the Montezuma Well located in Rimrock, Arizona. The Well measures 386 feet from rim to rim. The Well contains 1,500,000 gallons of water which comes from an underground spring. This volume stays consistent even during times of drought. I walked down to the canal and the water was rushing out. The tree by the canal was huge, I wish I remembered the measurements around. Again, just amazing to see all this.
