We Love the Osha Trail

Just starting out
On a Saturday, just outside of Cloudcroft, New Mexico, we did a hike on the ever-popular Osha Trail and did not run into a single person until we were back at the trail head.  It was a beautiful morning, party-cloudy with a slight breeze.  I love the epiphanies you experience while hiking a trail in the high country, that momentary feeling of well-being, the sense that you are one with the universe.
