This 6 mile hike is #42 in the Sierra Club book on Day Hikes in the Santa Fe area.
The Ojito Wilderness was established in 2005 and is just west of San Ysidro. The area has beatiful high desert scenery with views of Cabezon and the Red Mesa cliffs.
This is an off-trail hike, estimated to take 6 hours to complete. There is no trail - it is a cross country hike over rough terrain. The guidebook provides 20 waypoints for the round trip hike. I'll send out the waypoints prior to the hike, so that participants can load them into their GPS ahead of time.
Who's up for a quick trip to Wolf Creek this weekend? Drive up Friday leaving Los Alamos late afternoon, stay at a motel and hit the hot springs, ski on Saturday and drive back home. What's not to like about a 110" base? Colorado has all of our snow, so let's go make us of it. If interested, contact Bill at bill@priedhorsky.net.

This ski tour is being postponed until Saturday, February 1st while we wait for more snow in the Jemez. If there is no snow by that date, let's consider doing the trip as a hike instead. This will give us a chance to see this new area without delaying other ski trips that are scheduled later in February.
