Here are a few photos from an afternoon date exploring an area of slot canyons and washes about 30 minutes north of Socorro. Great geology with lots of nice stratigraphy cut by normal faults. It was a cool breezy afternoon- perfect for it. We hiked and climbed through some of the more interesting features in the canyon and then climbed up on top of the canyon for a sunset picnic dinner. Although not extensive, it is a pretty area to explore and my impression is it is one of the more scenic areas in our immediate vicinity. A great place for bonfires too. Thanks to Sara for showing me around.
