About Me

Todd Lochmoeller: Traveler has been living in the Four Corners area since 1991, much of the time on the Navajo Reservation near the Canyon de Chelly National Monument in northeast Arizona. My goal is to present highlights of the wonderful trails, mountains and canyons of the area, with a little of the environemntal and cultural overlays. If you are in the area, be sure to visit the National Parks: Mesa Verde, Canyonlands, Arches, Canyons of the Ancients, Hovenweep, Petrified Forest, Chaco Canyon, Natural Bridges, and the National Forests, San Juan and Manti-La Sal. And don't forget the scenic drives in the Navajo Nation.
