    I love making that little hike and climbing the spiral stairs, but I'll never go in the cave if other people are there (especially kids) because of all the dust that gets kicked up. It can get so bad that you can't see anything but dust particles in your light beam.

    • @EpicModeEngaged

    Placed my order last night. I've never owned a pair of Vans, usually associated it with skaters, so not really look that I could relate to. But the MTE model seems to be a different animal to the usual lineup. I needed a pair of comfy waterproof sneakers that I could wear casual on a daily basis. A versatile all-purpose shoe.

    Back and 1973 and 1974 I was part of the archaeological team that worked that site. What was amazing about it was the number of kivas on top of that mesa. The site was occupied twice. First by the original Chacoan builders and then by a secondary group who often excavated the floors instead of building up the walls. That large round kiva you were sitting in had burials all across the floor. We were down to the last few days of the last season and needed to trench below the floor, but every place we dug was another burial. The principle archaeologist on the site was Lonnie Pippen and he has published the results of the excavation. I believe the book is available through The Desert Research Institute in Reno, Nevada.
