This well constructed set of cliff dwellings shows nicely the benefit of its situation in a south-facing alcove. In the cool winter the sun heats the rock and walls during the day, while in the warm summer the roof shades the dwelling. This group of rooms is near Moon House, and is around 900 to 1000 years old (Pueblo III).

and a roll up shade is also included to absorb winter heat and bring it inside, and in summer the glass skin can be opened to let the heat escape outside!

Sean and Pete work at getting the attached greenhouse enclosed (attached to the southward facing front of the home dome, this will help passively heat the dome, and get seeds started in the spring).

One year ago on this day I put up my first unit. To commemorate I have placed my newest unit on the same sign. You can see the back tab from the original unit still stuck on the left side of the sign.
