On this one-day trip you have

Of interest, has been described in
this list Of one-day motor trips
from Albuquerque. coehiti lies Is
miles further north on the west
side of the Rio Grande. The round
trip covers almost a hundred miles.
Care must be takenNshortly after
leaving San Felipe not to follow
the river bottom road, but to turn
to the left around the base of the
Black mesa, You will find river
bottom enough on this upper road
but the trip will prove cool and
easy, especially IL kindly showers
have packed the sand. Seemingly
all the gnarled and distorted cot
tonwood trees in New Mexico have
been assembled in this stretch be-
tween San Felipe and Cochiti,
There are thickets of young will
, lows, too. so that at times you
seem to be pushing through dense
underground. j..
You catch glimpse of Santo
Domingo across the river, and see
ing 1t from this viewpoint, you can
| fully appreciate why the sHnto
| Domingians have had to move their
town back to higher ground three
or four times. La Bajada stands
out clearly In the east and its
winding road shows up with sur
prising distinctness. {>
Cochiti itself Is a mixture of
Indian and Mexican houses. There
seem to be no distinct boundaries
to the respective quarters, The
houses are all neat and picturesque.
The church is so completely mod
ernized that II bears no resem-
blance to an Indian mission. There
are two kivas in the village, both
| OF the round type.
The chief interest in Cochiti Is
historical. 1t Is the last home of
the descendants of those ancient
peoples who lived in the cave
dwellings and communal houses OF
the Rito de los Frijoles. The con-
trast between those ancients and
their descendants is almost stag
gering. for more than any other Of
the pueblos these indians are mod
ernized. All of them speak Eng
lish quite fluently and are thor
oughly familiar with modern con-
veniences."
There are several delightful pic
mic spots further up the canyon
beyond the village.
