First time I’ve hiked this without New Mexico Mountain Club members. It was exploratory to find the trailhead. Hiked the social trail on top of the bluff, but did not get all the way down to the area that I hiked in November 2022. Saw a large arch, though, not nearly as dramatic as the two arches I saw in November 2022. Recommend returning to the same area to explore again and find the previous route. Will add distance, likely up to about 8 miles or so.

Rough terrain but the very unusual and beautiful scenery makes it worthwhile!

Beautiful & just enough elevation to make it interesting with a good workout for us & dogs.
