Frigid

The first big temperature inversion near El Paso

If the wind had been stiffer this morning, we'd have frozen our butts off.  It was 17 F just after the sun rose, but it quickly warmed up to 25 F by hike time.  Despite the cold, we did a long hike through the Chihuahuan Desert.


Crystal clear near Las Cruces
