Stars Above the Mesa

The wheeling stars of the unspoiled night turn above
North Mesa as seen from the floor of Chaco Canyon. Stargazing
for calendrical, spiritual, recreational, and scientific purposes
is a thread that connects modern Chaco Canyon, its residents, and
its visitors with all its previous ages. This is a portfolio of
photographs of Chaco Canyon by night and by day.
