I feel so much more knowledgeable now regarding Pueblo Indian cultures and the Jemez group in particular. Amy, my guide, was very thorough with her narratives and very patient while answering all of my many questions. Can't say enough about the impressive landscapes and underlying geology. Highly recommended!!!
