The plan for the day…Chiricahua National Monument. Approximately 70 miles east of our campground (at St. George) is the “Wonderland Of Rocks”, otherwise known as the Chiricahua Mountains. These mountains were the lands controlled by the Chiricahua Apaches and under the leadership of Cochise, who led the Native Americans resistance in the 1860’s. The ride into this 12,000 acre park took us all the way up to 7800 feet and into some of the most unusual rock formations you could ever imagine. The territorial views from up there were unbelievable.
