Its free, off the beaten path, though easy to find and not usually crowded. And you can get into the ruins and see a Kiva up close.

This ruin is just 4 miles away. As a lesser known ruin, its never crowded.

Lowry Pueblo is located about 45 miles (72 km) northwest of Cortez, Colorado, and about 100 miles (160 km) north of Chaco Canyon, one of the major centers of Ancestral Puebloan culture. The pueblo was named for the early area homesteader George Lowry. It is believed to have begun as a relative small community with just a few rooms, but is unusual for the presence of a great kiva, suggesting it served as a communal center for a scattered population before the settlement around it got larger.[4] The inhabitants were farmers who also hunted small game, made elaborately decorated pottery, and wove cotton obtained by trade. Its last occupation occurred in the early 13th century. Lowry Pueblo was first excavated during summer field seasons from 1930 to 1936 by Paul Sidney Martin of the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago.[5] In 1965, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), which owned the property, undertook a two-year project with the University of Colorado to stabilize the ruins, which had become partially buried. It was incorporated as part of the Canyons of the Ancients National Monumentin 2000.
