For the seventh year in a row, the Middle
Rio Grande Chapter has supported the Socorro Ranger District by working
on the Continental Divide Trail in the area of Pelona Mountain. This
year the task was to pack trail markers to the top of trail on Pelona
Mountain and fill in the gaps between the markers that already exist.
Along the way, we re-set posts and installed signs.

Once
we were out of the valley, the wind was really blowing. Diane
took some extra measures to keep her hat on. |
