The blooms of Cane Cholla brighten the fallen walls of Yapashi Pueblo.
Yapashi Pueblo is located 6 miles from the visitor center at Bandelier. The hike to Yapashi is strenuous, passing through Mid-Alamo Canyon (>500' elevation change in less that 1/4 mile). Except in a spring after a snowy winter, water is rarely available along this route.
