Here's another New Mexico weekend adventure report. This time we went to San Lorenzo Canyon, just north of Socorro NM; what was supposed to be a 3-day trip had to be cut short to a 2-day weekend trip due to work, but we managed to make it worthwhile and visited most of the places we had planned...

Hi, I'm waiting for these friends to confirm they can make it on Friday, if not we'll do it on Saturday, but Friday is looking good. We're coming out of Santa Teresa, so I think somewhere along I-10, like Love's truck stop in Anthony, time around 8 am. You can call me or text me your # so I can...

I'm waiting on a friend to confirm, but we're planning on going on Friday morning.

Thanks to all. I will be going back for sure (God willing), there's still lots of trails and canyons that I want to explore. I've been living in New Mexico for over 25 years and I had never been to those mountains, and I'm about two hours away from them (I live in Santa Teresa, NM)!! We just...

And here's a short video of this trip. https://youtu.be/Ttgg1p3qJ-g

It is really a nice area with lots of nice forest canyons and back roads. I will be going back soon to explore more of them; maybe go as far as the Guadalupe Mountains NP, Carlsbad Caverns NP area and all the way down to Big Bend NP, that would be a really nice week long trip going through the...

This past weekend we went for a little adventure to the Sacramento Mountains in southern New Mexico. We went trough the back roads crossing Fort Bliss' live fire range. You can drive through that road, as long as you stay on it, then you take the road that follows the Sacramento river bed until...

Nice! Nice! It's now in my bucket list!

Hi neighbor! I know it's a little late, but I've just built my own off-road hitch for my pop-up build. I'll weld a receiver end and use a regular 2" ball coupler for highway use and just switch it for off-road. Stronger and a cheaper than a Max coupler.

I'm doing the same thing to my Coleman Taos and I'll be using Jeep XJ leaf springs, though mine will be about 1500 lbs. or less. I also have a pair of add-a-leafs that I can use if needed to play with. Place the shocks on the rear, on the same side of the shackles and as perpendicular to the...

Some more photos from the first day: After playing some time on the warm springs, we south on NM52, nice little dirt road with cattle ranches and grassy rolling hills. Then we turn west into a paved but very scenic NM 59. Then south on NM 61, the North Star Road. Wall Lake Lots of...

Some more... My crawling side had to come out somehow... To be continued....

Here's a small report of our trip last week to the home lands of the famous chiricahua apache Goyakla, otherwise known as Geronimo. We started our trip at El Paso, Texas, and after our friends from Juarez, Mexico joined us, we were soon on our way to Monticello, NM. We got on the trail in the...

That's my YJ, pictures on the post just before that one.
