I took a fishing trip to Valle Vidal and Rio Costilla Park. You can read about it here. Hope you enjoy.

Another good read. Thanks, Ski. Hmmm...WWVFLA...Western Wanderers Volunteer Fire Lookout Association?

The folklore around here is that when the alpine goldenrod blooms we are a month away from the first freeze. That means we've got two or three weeks to go. I go by my collie. When she starts shedding her undercoat to make room for the winter undercoat, I figure we will see autumn weather in...

What a great getaway with adventures and meeting good friends and feasting the eyes on Natural Beauty. It goes without saying that I enjoyed the trip report. I have a cousin who lives in Moab. He misses the days before the "adventure boom".

Hope you and Twain Harte fare well. Stay safe.

x2 on that.

I too, am sorry to hear about your wife. My sincere condolences. Hope the truck finds a good home.

Yeah, it's like the village of Ruidoso being pronounced "REE-uh-do-so", but lately I hear more people saying "ROO-ee-do-so".

That Musk fella bears watching.

An enjoyable read with your usual great photos. Thanks for posting it, and also for the post-mortem on the Las Conchas burn. Were there many vehicles parked at the trailhead leading to San Pedro Parks wilderness?

Congrats on pulling the trigger on the Hawk. Be sure to post a pic of it sitting on its dolly. Better yet, we'd all love to see pics from the inaugural voyage. :)

Thanks for keeping us in the loop. Appreciate it.

Well, it's time to give this thread a bump. There's a bright nova in the constellation Delphinus that should be easily visible to the naked eye from a dark site. Even in the city, you should be able to see it with binoculars. Here are the relevant charts and info: Hope you wanderers get a...

Beautiful stuff, Lighthawk. Great grab of that Perseid. I liked the Iridium flare photo, too, and the morning twilight photos, oh shoot - I liked 'em all!

That's another area I know nothing about, so I really enjoyed your report. That looks like a nice state park with lots of interesting features.

Still don't see many ATCs or FWCs in southern New Mexico, but I'm starting to see more pop-ups made in Colorado (Phoenix, Hallmark, Outfitter). I do get asked about my camper, too, and have printed up "brag tags" with the URLs for FWC, ATC and WtW. Now that there's a Colorado FWC dealer, maybe...

Great so far. Really looking forward to the rest. What a good looking lake. Does it live up to its name? Did you see loons? Do they migrate through there? That's a pretty sunset. It looks like some wildfire smoke is enhancing the reds??

Woo-hoo! The tale is off and running!

I use Inciweb, too. For southwest fires I also check the Southwest Coordination Center, especially the intelligence page.

Here's a fairly short and belated report on a quick fishing trip in part of New Mexico's Carson National Forest. Hope you enjoy it. http://highzramblings.blogspot.com/2013/08/red-river-and-cabresto-lake.html

Beautiful! Should be required reading for every project manager.

Yes, congrats on the sale, and best of luck with the new property and lifestyle. Glad you will be checking in from time to time.

What a great thing to be doing. Of course, I had to Google the American Chestnut Foundation. For those (like me) who didn't know about them, here's a link to their website and all that they are doing to bring back a magnificent tree. Edit: I have a question, Hittheroad. I understand...

Thanks for keeping us updated on your Western Wander. I'm enjoying the photos!

Cool, Ted - and addictive. None of those bears look too skinny.
