On our way back to Flagstaff from Phoenix we made two stops. This was one of them. Montezuma's Castle is a National Monument. Informaton says this was inhabited in the 1100 - 1200's and that Montezuma probably never came this far north but the name just stuck. Access to these living areas was by ladder which could be pulled up for security. There is a reasonable creek below that gave a good water supply much of the year.
