We did South Piedra Lisa trail today to Rincon Ridge, about 2 miles up. This hike has splendid views on both sides of the trail, with Albuquerque to the west and impressive granite formations to the east. As you can see from the picture above, it was snowing as we set out.
By the time we reached Rincon Ridge, the snowcloud had lifted just enough above the horizon to show bright sunny views to the north.
One of the many impressive granite formations, the Shield (I think).
City views on the way back.
