Far View Community Site | Mesa Verde National Park | June 11, 2023
The drive from Far View Lodge to the Far View Community Sites is less than 2 miles.
"The Far View area was once an extensive farming community and one of the most densely populated regions of the Mesa Verde. This mesa top community includes Far View House, Pipe Shrine House, Coyote Village, Far View Reservoir (currently dry), Megalithic House, and Far View Tower. In ancient times, it was a place of modest homes interspersed with small farm fields. It was a place filled with people, vibrant life, and constant change.
Beginning around 800 CE, Ancestral Pueblo people lived here for several centuries, farming the deep mesa-top soils, building their homes, and raising their families. This was not always a quiet woodland. On a summer day in 1050 this ancient community would have been filled with the smell of juniper smoke and the sounds of everyday life: conversations between people working together, barking dogs, laughing children, ravens calling overhead, and the wind rustling through the shiny corn leaves. In the mid-1100s, there may have been at least 35 occupied villages and surrounding farm and garden plots within a half-square-mile area, including those you can visit today.
The archeological evidence at Far View reveal the presence of thriving mesa top communities long before the existence of the more famous cliff dwellings. But they also help disclose another, little known fact. Not everyone ultimately moved into and lived in the cliff dwellings. Some families clearly chose to remain on the mesa top, like those at Far View, well after many of their neighbors moved into cliff alcoves.
As you follow the woodland trail among the six sites, read the trailside signs to learn about Ancestral Pueblo life in the surrounding landscape between 800 to 1300 CE. Take a step back in time and imagine corn (maize), beans, and squash plants sprinkled along the landscape.
Trail Data
0.75 miles (1.2 km) loop (unpaved, level trail)

Hi, I’m Kendra! I’ve spent most of my life in Texas and have a passion for cooking and preserving food through canning. I love it so much that I started a small canning business in 2011, specializing in jams and pickles. I also volunteer as the social media manager for our family cemetery and our annual family reunion. Additionally, I’ve had the pleasure of volunteering as a judge for the Creative Arts Division for Canned Goods at the State Fair of Texas. When I’m not busy with these activities, you’ll find me camping or traveling.

A fantastic view of Point Lookout. "The Point Lookout Formation lies directly over the Mancos Shale. The Point Lookout is mainly composed of tan to buff colored sandstone, with some shale lenses interspersed throughout. At the time of its deposition, the sea was retreating and the water here became more shallow. This caused the change in deposition from shale back to beach deposits of sandstone...

Um!
Its never too hot for hot coffee!
I love Cornichons those miniature gherkins you get in a jar. They're absolutely delicious and taste good. They've got a really nice flavour to them. Gherkins are my favourite pickle. They're nice on cheese burgers or sandwiches.
I make ice coffee all the time but never like this. What a great idea. Since we are keto in this house I sweeten it with just a bit of sugar free Hershey's Syrup and a bit of half and half. Delicious.
@OleensEmbroidery Yum! We don't add sugar to ours either, but i like my vanilla almond creamer, and it definitely has sugar. I wish they had a monk fruit sugar version. The syrup is a good idea! Sounds good! I've used nut milk bags as well, but these premeasured coffee filters are the easiest, and the clean-up is quick.
So you dont need pectin in this receipe?
@@thefreckledcyn8826 Nope!
Hello Kendra and family. I love scenery to view.👍👍👍👍👍
@@pbenson56fran Thank you 😊
@@kendraskreations you are welcome Kendra
Kendra's Kreations, amazing video I really liked it
Thanks so much :)
I ask about the eggplant because I eat it as a meal with toppings.❤❤❤
Sounds delicious!
@@kendraskreations Kendra it was for someone who didn't like eggplant. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Have a wonderful day
6 thumbs up on the leftovers. Yummy ❤Kendra your dinner was good. Please tell me, if the eggplant has seeds, how you get rid of them? Thank you
Thank you so much! Yes, the eggplant has seeds - I kept them in for this recipe. They're edible and generally safe, though they can sometimes be a bit bitter or have a slightly crunchy texture. In younger eggplants, the seeds are small and tender, so they’re less noticeable. As eggplants mature, the seeds can become larger and more prominent, which might affect texture and taste. Removing eggplant seeds is usually a simple process. Here’s a method to do it effectively: Slice the eggplant in half lengthwise or into rounds, depending on your recipe. Use a spoon or a melon baller to gently scoop out the seeds. If you're working with halved eggplants, you can also use a small spoon to scrape out the seeds and some of the flesh if needed. If there are still some seeds clinging to the flesh, you can rinse the cut pieces under water to remove them. Pat the eggplant dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. For some recipes, like eggplant Parmesan or baba ganoush, you might not need to remove all the seeds, especially if they're small and tender. If you're concerned about bitterness, salting the eggplant before cooking can help reduce it, but it's more about the whole texture and flavor balance than just the seeds.
@@kendraskreations You know from now on the seeds will stay.....Thank you for taking the time to answer my question about the seeds. . Bye bye

SPI. I hope. Beautiful Scenery
It's actually somewhere on the Bolivar Peninsula... near the Gilchrist or Caplen area from a couple of weeks ago.
Use vacuum bags for sheets etc and the bucket as a trash can or toilet if you need one put trash bags in the buckets before using it either way.
There are no linens in camping!!!!
Maybe for you, but we like to be comfortable.
Would zipper wax help?
Absolutely, it would.
Very nice!
Thanks so much : )
This was such a great show. Do you have any more videos from it? Thanks for posting.
You pronounced it correctly the first time corn-nee-shon!
Hi Ii make Watermellon Konfyt. We are expats from South Africa, been living in Huntsville, Texas for 33 years. I like your video so have subscribed.
@@MickyBellRoberts Thanks for being here! Is watermelon konfyt similar to this recipe?
Kendra the sand is beautiful
It really is. Absolutely beautiful.
Excellent! French gherkins are unlike American style gherkins, which are super sweet. Many cornichons are produced with cane vinegar (less sweet) and peppercorns and onions along with tarragon and mustard.
This is another you go too because its there. Not user friendly at all. Same with Colorado National Monument. Road tripping stops that eat up a day. Go to Moab. La Sals Gold Basin or backside through the town of La Sal up to medicine lake
Going from Great Dunes/Mount Blanca. Back east, I 40 aka TX NM hwys. It is there. I try to drive from Chattanooga all the way to Dunez one shot. 40 is best way west. Not a big Colorado fan. Except Allenspark to Nederland. Indian Peaks area.

Thanks for being here ✌️❤️
If this was a 5 hour video with that track on loop I'd have watched it all
I can make that for you if you want. lmk
I don’t know how the algorithm got me here but this video made me happier
Sameeee
That area is so beautiful.
I think so too!
Hello. Did you have a good time.
We had a blast! Thanks for asking :)
Yes, I would certainly say Kendra
I love a road trip
Who knows, but I've heard that tung tree seeds were used as buttons, and that makes a little more sense to me. Of persimmons they say the seeds were used to stretch out coffee, much like chicory root . Again, who knows?
In the video, you said you water bathed canned them for maybe 10-15 minutes. I was looking in a canning book and it says to Pressure can for 1 hour and 10 minutes for pints and 1 hour and 30 minutes. Your time seems very short, but the canning book time for greens seems awfully high. Can you explain maybe why the difference?
The times you mentioned are for pressure canning, and I am pickling them so they are waterbathed, so the time is shorter. Since I'm adding the vinegar to change the pH it is no longer a low acid food and can be waterbath canned.
@@kendraskreations thank you for the explanation!! Makes since now. 😁
Yummmm.... I want some! 😍
That the great thing about recipes...you can tailor them to your taste! Thank you this is great!
They just started bringing these motherfuckers to the Deep South. I buy them by the bags when I see them. Can’t seem to find a big ass bag tho. Best potato chip by far. And didn’t go the bullshit way like toms and Rap snacks by using some fake ass potato. Who the funk wants a bio engineered potato chip. Anyways. Good review cutie!
good job... as a fellow Texan I love these sweet watermelon rind preserves.. growd up eating them.. my granny made tuem for me until she was so old she couldn't do it anymore... I have made then for myself over the years and fixin to make me a batch today. Thank you for the simple straight forwars video.
Ah man! Love to hear that! Let me know how they turn out :)
Now, that is what I call a large knife. I could cut some leaves with that.
Wow wow bacon salt one if your kreations
You gave me an idea for forks....etc. thank you
Hmhmhmhm all that jam I just love. Salsa too
Have you ever tried canning it? The nchfp has instructions for apple juice, so I would be tempted to try this as well. Would be great to have on hand for, say, sweet and sour chicken.
Ooo that's interesting! No, I never thought of canning it! What a good idea! It may have to be pressure canned since it is so full of water. Next time I make it I should test the pH levels
That is one veggie I have never have.
Can you make this with honey? Stevia?
Sure! Use whatever sweetener you like
