4/16/2017, Easter Sunday.
Belated Happy Easter to everyone.
Arrived at Mesa
Campground in the Gila
National Forest , about 18
miles form the Gila Cliff Dwellings National Monument. No cell service, internet
or TV!
We’d spent Friday and Saturday of the Easter weekend in the Alamogordo and Las Cruces
Wal-Marts, leaving the crowded campgrounds to the locals. On Sunday afternoon we found a nice site with
afternoon shade and a great view of the surrounding mountains.
4/17/2017
Day trip to the Gila Cliff Dwellings, one of the few such
sites where you can walk around inside the ruins.
4/18-19/2017
There were numerous hiking/sightseeing opportunities in the
surrounding area but we decided to stay close to camp and simply enjoy the
peaceful setting. Wild temperature swings, 31 to 78 degrees in the same day,
humidity running 10 to 20%.
Next stop, City of Rocks State Park NM.
Here’s pictures from Gila Cliff Dwellings and Mesa
Campground.
