We stopped at some other locations on the way to our 4 o'clock tour of Long House. One was
Square Tower - an overlook. Another was not too far from a Visitor's
Center, the Sun Temple. While on the Badger House Trail, we were stopped just as we had pulled in to park by a park ranger/officer. He stated there was an incident involving a man trespassing onto an site being excavated at the same time we were going around from site to site. He asked if we were involved in that. Of course, not! According to an archeologist or excavator there was a man who fled in a car similar to our's - a silver sedan (our car is NOT silver). Jared didn't fit the man's description at all nor the clothes that he was wearing yet the officer still asked for Jared's license and called in his info and our license plate and such to the main office as if we were guilty. We never did find out if they found the guy or not. I guess sometimes in this country we are made to feel as if we are guilty until proven innocent. Good thing they didn't try to slap us with a fine! Yeah, I am kinda offended but I would still go back to Mesa Verde just because of the awesome camping and sites.
