I will definitely check out Herbal Alternatives. Everyone is so nice here, it’s so refreshing. And it’s so dark at night. I can see the stars at night so bright! I drive very cautiously and will look out for deer. I am so excited to visit the ancient Cliff dwellings . This place is incredible.

While you're at Herbal, check out Notah Dineh trading post and Museum. It's 5 minutes away. It has one of the largest weaved rugs by Rachel Curley who was part of the Tachiinii clan and some really cool Native art you'll love. Jewelry was half off, I picked up a sweet "Navajo pearl" sterling siler necklace for myself and earrings for my wife and daughter.

During my last visit I talked to Sam in Notah, he's behind the jewelry case. Talk to him. He knew so much about the area, he might be able to get you to some of the cliff dwellings that tourists don't know about. There are hundreds. He is a very nice guy who really loves his community.
There is so much history there. At one point 1000 years ago or so the population of 4 corners was larger than what it is now. It was a very busy trading route , with exotic bird feathers found in digs from as far away as South America. It is not uncommon to find arrowheads in the red dirt/ pasture after a rain. Illegal to keep on public land, but private it is ok. My Uncle has a few.

If you cant tell, I'm super excited for you! Lol

Only if they are studded ;)

I remember back in the days when there were just RWD cars. You wouldn't think about going thru a Midwest winter without studded snows. One of BB's first jobs was tire buster at a Phillips 66 station. Had to stud tires by hand too, that really sucked. It was a full service station so that meant running out there in all kinds of weather for "gimme 2 dolla" :hump:

Alaska allows studs to be run 6 months of the year.
Never saw anything worse than a very slight "dip" where everybodys tires ran (you couldn't really even notice it unless you looked). Maybe they build roads different up there - IDK.
