First hike of 2014. Looking for snow, we picked a hike on the east side of the mountain. We donned our yak tracks and started out on this trail covered with more ice than snow, got side tracked, hiked part of Oso Corredor trail and.... ended up back to the trail head.
Got to enjoy some great eastern views once we found the correct trail climbing up the mountain.
After 2 miles, we reached the Sandia Mountain Wilderness boundary. The Tree Spring trails merges with the 10K Loop and the Crest trails at this intersection. Just 200 feet west, we found an outlook with spectacular views of both the mountain and the city.
