Chaco Culture National Historic Park
The high thick walls of Kin Kletso ruin have a square layout. This view is from near the entrance to a trail that climes to the cap-rock rim along the north side of Chaco Canyon. Kin Kletso means "yellow house" in Navajo, and refers to the color of the sandstone used in the construction of the great house (NPS, 2004).
