A friend and I, plus pooch and goats, took a great day hike this week. We went up Cottonwood Canyon in the Apache National Forest in SW New Mexico. Elevation was about 7000 ft. It was a beautiful day, clear, about 50 degrees. There's a little snow in the shade and in the bottom of the canyon. No trail up the canyon, other than what the cows and elk have made. Nice cliffs, a pretty waterfall, some caves where the Indians probably hung out. We had it all to ourselves.The dog and the goats were in heaven (so were we!). Here are some pics.
