Chaco is not be missed. Summer thunderstorm can turn road into a quagmire. I worked on the Navajo Res and out of Farmington on some coal mines. The commute is long and difficult. Try to stay at the site or find a place to boondock nearby.
We drove there once in a 2wd Subaru with four people. We got out to push about 6x and were covered in mud by the time we got there. The day the mud people came to visit Chaco Cyn.
The site was clearly a regional center to celebrate cellestial events for Publeoan people. They travelled long distances to get there. The ponderosa pine logs used for vigas to support the roof structures came from distant mountains 50-90 miles away. The logs have been used to date the structures on the site. I love this place.
