False Kiva- sunburst through rock

            Second sunset in False Kiva- slightly different view than earlier posting.  The sun crossed a crack in the rock across the canyon, providing a second opportunity to catch the sunburst.  The structure is called "False Kiva" as it is not a kiva (spiritual structure) but instead is thought to have been a regular lived-in dwelling.  Additional structures once occurred along the alcove wall.
