Sandia 10K Trail to Del Agua Overlook
Jim and I decided on a early Sandia hike today (5/30/09) from the 10K Trail to Del Agua Overlook and back. This picture shows Del Agua Overlook from Crest Trail looking over the city of Albuquerque with Mount Taylor on the horizon. The hike was about 10 km (!) with a very modest incline. (The trail is called 10K because it roughly follows the 10,000 foot elevation contour.) Being late spring, the land was still moist and very green with abundant spring flowers.
