Great pictures, ugga bugga.

I really love that whole area.

I've always wanted to hike up Hermit's Peak. How strenuous is it? (I'm old. )

You're saying the little guy beat you up the trail

Hermits Peak has been on our list of places to stop at for years.

Thanks for sharing! The drive between Cuba and Farmington on 550 is just amazing...all of the beautiful colors and formations.....

Aztec reminds me of a CO mining town, and is more CO than NM.

If I move farther north, I am REALLY going to miss the beautiful Sacramentos and San Andres here...as well as the canyons. I'm really torn, too. Alamo is a great little town, but there is never going to be skiing nearby much, and the summers are always going to be hotter than I like. If I hadn't checked Alamo temperature-wise for the ski season of 2006 (Cloudcroft/Ruidoso, which had their best seasons in years), I probably wouldn't be here. Although it was not originally on my list, it was in the back of my mind mainly because of the ease in gettting home to check on my aging parents, much easier at 400 than 800 miles.

But neither Farmington and Cuba can compare to Alamogordo for scenery. The upside is the reliable snow at Wolf Creek and Purgatory/DMR, which Ski Apache will never have, maybe about every 3-4 years.

*Tears hair out*

I am enjoying this cooler weather, though the dust storm yesterday wasn't all that great, LOL!!
