Casa Grande Ruins National Monument consists of the ruins of multiple structures surrounded by a compound wall constructed
by the ancient people of the Hohokam period, who farmed the Gila Valley in the early 13th century. It has a good
visitor center with much information about the Hohokam people. Outside are a number of large specimens of desert plants,
including the saguaro cactus.
Gram and Pops visited here in April 2011.
