Spruce Tree House Tour in Mesa Verde


 The Spruce Tree House was the final house we went to in Mesa Verde, and was the easiest to visit.  There were no tall ladders, and you don't need a tour to go, just an easy slope down and up with free reign everywhere.  This is the third largest cliff dwelling in the park with 130 rooms and 8 kivas.  What's fun is that you can even go down into one of the kivas, which you can't do at the Cliff Palace or Balcony House.  Thanks to the lack of a tour guide I enjoyed this house most of all, mainly because it was fun wondering around without a time restraint.  There is a rope that prevents you from going into the rooms, which is a shame, because I would have loved to explore.
