Conveniently located at the west side of town, the education centger has self-guided displays that explain the Bears Ears National Monument. The docent gave us advice about things to see in the area. This is very much worth the time.

A very trek through the canyon . A lot of shade if you want to stop and take in the surroundings. Once there , there is a metal ammo box that you open and it has some info in it about the area. We got some pretty good pictures but not like the one above. It is easy enough to bring your young ones along. I seen 2 little boys between 3 and 6 there with there parents enjoying there selves. Bring water as you should on any hike out here.

Pan for gold, pretend to drive a covered wagon, explore the garden, enjoy ice cream and homemade treats. Learn about pioneer and Native American history. The gift area (outdoors for now) has lots of affordable treasures. We bought a lovely piece of wooden art ($7!) depicting the twin rocks, then realized it was also a jigsaw puzzle!

We headed along 3rd East Street for a few blocks past an attractive assortment of sturdy homes, and at the end of the street we followed the signs up the gravel road a short distance to the tidy town cemetery overlooking the bustling metropolis of Bluff. The grave stones included a sad line of little metal crosses marking the last resting place of some indigent World War II veterans – probably Navajos. On our way back down from the cemetery there was a small kiosk and a narrow path leading to the shattered ruins of a Chacoan Great House.
