Rocky Base of the Cliff

Jagged rocks at the base of an ancient cliffside Pueblo settlement rise from the vast American Southwest desert under bright daylight. Two Boy Scouts grip holds and scramble upward, defying their Scoutmaster's warnings of endless labyrinthine passageways inside. Young Indiana Jones watches from the group, his gaze fixed on the forbidden climb that mirrors his own future artifact hunts amid arid openness and lurking mysteries.
