The principal goal of this web site is to describe day hikes in the Albuquerque area. There are many great guides to local hikes, but my own list will include a few new options. To see the hikes, click on "Hikes" in the navigation bar. I'll also include a few ideas about hiking practices and gear in the desert Southwest, under the "Hiking Skills" tab or at times as a blog. 

This web site looks better on a large screen. Since I'm from the stone age of computer use, that's how I think and design. Apologies to all those who access the web site via their smart phone.

In November 2015 I started a YouTube channel, which you can find by clicking here. In August 2017 I started pages of nature photos, which you can find by clicking on one of the tabs at the top. If you'd like to contact me, you'll find a tab for that as well.
