Hiking at Tent Rocks
Posted By Jill on July 31, 2008
Here we are at today’s first site – the Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks. We
hiked the mile-long cave trail of these rocks formed millions of years
ago from volcanic eruptions.
I feel like a broken record to say Mac did great! Jeremy walked
quickly from one shaded spot to another, and we stopped for water a
lot. For those who may be wondering, we also have sunscreen on Mac – I had called to clear that with our doctor before we left.
After Tent Rocks, we drove to a scenic overlook above the Rio Grande. Complete with two waterfalls, this made a perfect spot for our picnic lunch!
On the drive back we went through/past Bandelier National Monument, and made a stop at Valles Calderas National Preserve, a prairie that has the largest elk herd in North America. I unfortunately missed quite a bit since I was concentrating more on the baby in the back seat.
