Diablo Canyon, New Mexico

Saturday, 2 July 2016

Took the pups for a hike into Diablo Canyon on the north side of Santa Fe.  Total of 6.7 miles, but less than a 500 ft elevation gain for the whole hike.  Started by climbing through towering canyons, listening to birdsong echoing through the canyon.  Then it opened up into a wide sandy wash where we followed it all the way to the banks of the Rio Grande.  Pups were surprised to find a swimmin' spot at the end of a long, dry, dusty hike, and boy were they excited!  After much splashing, swimming, jumping, and herding in the cool river, we hiked back out of the canyon and to the car.  Of course, all that hot dusty hiking made us really really thirsty, and of course, our RV park is just down the road from Santa Fe Brewing Co, so of course we stopped to re-hydrate.  Ended the day grilling dinner at the RV and taking the pups bunny-hunting.  Great day!
