At Week's End

Starting down the mountain

A beautiful Friday morning in the Chihuahuan Desert.  It was a bit chilly with a stiff wind, but the wind had died before our hike was done.  We're headed for 70 degrees F. today--not bad for November 18th.  We saw a few New Mexico State employees who were driving to the top of Tortugas Mountain, but nobody else was out and about.
