Can someone tell me what the weather is like in Northern NM in the area between Abiquiu and Chama NM in approximately late Oct to early November? I don't mind cold but is snow prevalent then? I'm thinking of hiking at Ghost Ranch and possibly the Edward Sargeant Wildlife area. Does the ES Wildlife area have hunting going on during that time period? Can someone suggest another area?

February is great especially with their Chili supper festival. I am in Chama early October and it is beautiful. Sargent wildlife does have hunting going on. Ghost Ranch has hiking trails we've been on. If you are going to Northern NM I would suggest getting a cabin at Corkins. They own several hundred beautiful acres which we hike all day and my husband fishes. You would really like Corkins Lodge. Check it out.

There certainly can be, although fall is usually a fairly dry time in most of New Mexico. And it will already be quite cold...nighttime freezes in that part of New Mexico arrive by late September. In Chama itself, the average high in November is 48, the average low is 16. For October, the high is 61 and the low is 27. Abiquiu is quite a bit warmer, especially for the lows, but you would still expect it to freeze regularly at night by mid-late October.

I've seen a dusting of snow in October but nothing too bad. I love Chama there is so much to do there. Prefer it to Abiquiu.

Never been but saw some photos a Flickr contact posted from there. So cool seeing photos of Brazos Cliffs with a lake in the foreground!
