The tour of Taos Pueblo was guided by a college student who grew up in the Pueblo. Living in the Pueblo requires sacrificing modern conveniences as there is no electricity or running water. Ruins of San Geronimo remain as a monument to past Pueblo suffering and destruction, while current adobe structures require ongoing maintenance and cooking is done using traditional round ovens or for ceremonial meals.
