Here are a few pictures taken on a dayhike last October. This is the Pecos Wilderness in the northern portion of New Mexico. Here's where the Pecos River starts out from, as in ''the ugliest orange jacket west of the Pecos and east of the Rio Grande". Bright orange jacket helps identify me as friendly forces, don't aim here. The first 2 pics we're on a ridge at about 11,600ft/3535m, the snow was from a couple of weeks before. The guy who took the pics is from Florida and had never before seen snow or ''such an ugly orange jacket''. The next day he also got to see his first heavy-duty mountain hail storm followed by the most perfect rainbow. The bird in the hand is a little grey jay or 'camp robber' I believe and is not exactly shy. The guy from Florida was impressed I think, he sent me an Alpacka packraft. Thanks Dan, come out any time
