Pueblo Bonito (Spanish for beautiful town) is the largest and best-known great house in Chaco Culture National Historical Park, northern New Mexico. Smaller carnivores such as bobcat, badger, fox and two species of skunk are sometimes seen, and rodents are locally abundant, with a few prairie-dog towns in the park. The ultimate goal of this recent fieldwork is to obtain data that will enable researchers to examine the development of great-house communities in respect to relationships between demographic change and economic productivity.

August 2013 wurde das Gebiet von der International Dark-Sky Association als Lichtschutzgebiet ausgewiesen, das die astronomische Bedeutung und Funktion der Stätte dem Besucher erfahrbar erhalten soll, und nennt sich seither auch Chaco Culture International Dark Sky Park.

Most of the rock comprising the mesas as well as the canyon floor is sedimentary, and consequently tends toward flat bedding planes that are interrupted by relatively few faults and folds.

Summer is hot, with highs frequently above 90 F, and with much of the average year's precipitation falling in isolated, brief but violent thunderstorms. In addition to the Great Kivas, over thirty other kivas or ceremonial structures have been found, many also associated with the large central courtyard. Chaco, like most of northwestern New Mexico, has a high desert climate with four distinct seasons. In what is now the state of New Mexico in the south-western United States, in an area known as Chaco Canyon, are the remains of an elaborate development of the Anasazi people who lived in the region from about 500 to 1300 AD. If there's significant snow (say 6" or more) in the forecast, it's wise to defer your trip unless you're particularly well prepared for snowy roads.

1941 fiel eine große Steinplatte von einem Felsen herunter und zerstörte die hintere Mauer und einige Zimmer. This narrow, steep-walled butte rises about 400 feet above the canyon and is notable for artifacts including the "Sun Dagger," interpreted by some as an astronomical observatory/clock used by the Chacoans to keep track of annual progress toward the summer solstice. This was the first demonstration that the substance, important in rituals, had been brought into the area that became the United States at any time before the Spanish arrived around 1500.

This explains why Pueblo Bonito was inhabited for only about 300 years and is a good example of the effect that deforestation can have on the local environment. Permits are required for backcountry hiking.

This tree removal, combined with a period of drought, led the water table in the valley to drop severely, making the land infertile. The main sites are reached via a short loop road that is suitable for bicycles as well as cars; in fact, it's quite a comfortable ride that gives a more intimate sense of the canyon than you'll get from a car. It was built by the Ancestral Puebloans who occupied the structure between AD 828 and 1126. An analysis based on architecture estimated the resident population at 12 households, or about 70 people at its peak.
