We Hiked To Impossible Ancient Ruins Using Google Earth & Drone

After calling off our hike when we ran out of time, Tom & I are back in this remote canyon in the desert Southwest. The ancient people were smart when it came to locating their desert dwellings. But they had to be.
During our search, Google Earth yielded limited results so we took the drone up for a closer look. We are focused on this mountain. Just look at all the places you could hide your cliff dwelling. Where would you locate your house if you were living here 1000 years ago? Well let's go explore where the ancients decided to build and find it together.
