Bear Crossing trail into the gorge to the Rio Grande River is one of two trails here that I've not hiked. It is rated Extremely Difficult and you don't have to venture out on the trail very far to find it is rated correctly. The average drop into the gorge from most of the trails is 800' and takes you through towering Ponderosa Pines. This is a nice stop even if you don't hike the trail as there is a picnic table and of course gorgeous views and on this day a stunning sky. ©Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved In My Gallery/Collection: "New Mexico" 20210415-DSC_3208

Verdin Nest Building ©Debra Martz This was the first time I had seen a Verdin's nest and was quite surprised by the size and messiness of it! Maybe the inside is neater where it flew into it from the bottom with this bit of white fluff!

Bear Crossing at Wild Rivers Recreation New Mexico by Debra Martz Leaving the Chiflo stop, travel another approximate one mile south into the Wild Rivers Recreation Area and you come to the stop for Bear Crossing. This is one of a few trails that I have not hiked here. It is outside of the fee area and the does not receive the same level of upkeep that the longer trails do which are within the fee area. This trail is rated as Extremely Difficult and within 25 feet at the beginning of the trailhead I always turn around with a same thought, " still not for me!" But stop for the views or a picnic at the table under the big old tree! ©Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved In My Gallery/Collections: "New Mexico" "Landscapes and Landmark...

Tom Turkey Profile ©Debra Martz I first spotted a male turkey in full display near the visitors center shortly after our arrival at Bentsen-Rio Grande State Park. About a mile along the main trail into the park, I spotted a number of turkeys back in the trees so I just stood around awhile. Eventually, this gobbler come out of the trees where the sunlight really showed off all its details and colors. The state park is located in the Rio Grande Valley of south Texas. ©Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved In My Gallery/Collection: Feathered Friends 3 20230303-DSC_7338

Labyrinth at Montoso Campground Wild Rivers New Mexico by Debra Martz Over the years we have camped at a number of the campsites at Wild Rivers Recreation, a part of the Rio Grande Del Norte National Monument north of Questa, New Mexico. This year, however, no camping due to the Covid19 pandemic so we just revisited the many sites and trails. This unicursal labyrinth has been here many years and was just behind the covered picnic table the year we camped at the Montoso camping area. I never did get the story as to when or why but it seems to be appreciated as noone has disturbed it over the many years. Digital brushes and enhancements have been applied; use the zoom tool to see them closer. ©Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved In ...

Chawalauna Overlook at Wild Rivers Recreation New Mexico 3 by Debra Martz If you take the first right after stopping at the pay station, the Chawalauna Overlook is the next place for amazing views. There is not a trailhead here into the gorge but there are views both upstream and downstream (this view) of the Rio Grande. You can see where the other trails reach the river and backcountry campsites at the bottom of the gorge, where ponderosa pines offer tall shade if you decide to trout fish. If you are not camping up on the rim, this overlook offers parking to the Rinconada 6 mile loop trail which is on a well kept gravel path. It passes by all of the rim campgrounds of both the Rio Grande and Red River. When we camp here, if not ...
