Kate asks for a desert hike, and we think of this trail we haven’t been to in a while. The scattered mines make good rest stops, some with a platform for an age-old game of toss-a-pebble-into-the-black-pit. There are pretty nice views here too, a chance to race a train, and some good New Mexico sights like a lonely airstream and a stretch limo parked in a hilly dirt driveway.
