Embudito-Embudo Loop

This hike with Jim and Mark started out with a good omen. Four hawks flying repeatedly in a circle above us during our trek up Embudito. If you look carefully, you will see 3 black dots flying overhead. A family of hawks??

Another streak of good luck... We met up with a photographer who teaches digital photography 101 at UNM Continuing Education. She gave us pointers on how to take landscape pictures. Can you tell? (Needless to say, I decided on the spot to take her class during the summer.)

Every hike we ran into an oddity of nature...
