My biggest let-down was Canyon de Chelly NM.
Agreed. The solution to the mess that is Canyon DC NM is for the NPS to buy the property from the Navajo "nation" in order to preserve it as it should be. These public-private partnerships just don't work for a myriad of reasons, one major contributor being the merry-go-round that is tribal politics.
Until then, we'll have chaos at places like Canyon DC.
