On April 17th we went to Hovenweep National Monument in Utah. When we got to Hovenweep my dad and Ana went and got our Juiour Ranger packets. We had breakfast and then did our work. After we did our packets we went into the visitor center. We were going to get our badges but then my dad said no and so we started our trail. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Behind us is a little house build inside a boulder. Awesome!<\/p><\/div>\n

When we got going my dad spoted a lizard then another and another and another. We saw some ruins and then Greta saw a lizard that had a frill on its neck. We saw 17 lizards in all.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

A very cute lizard!<\/p><\/div>\n

After that we did our junior ranger hiking-bingo and looked for birds. Our dad told us that the the ancestral pueblo people who lived in Hovenweep had to put rocks and then mud to fill up the gaps that the big rocks did not cover.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

That's Hovenweep Castle across the canyon behind us. It is built using big and little rocks.<\/p><\/div>\n

After that we got pictures and started our way back. On the way back we saw a beetle that had a turquoise head. My dad said its head was beautiful.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Ana was the only one of us who could fit under this rock on our trail<\/p><\/div>\n

When we got back we went turned in our juiour ranger packets. After that we got to pick out a certificate. I chose the one with a mountin lion on it. After that we got to pick a normal junior ranger badge or one of the badges that they made. I got a badge that they made. Then we left and hit the road.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
