[Cdt-l] full circle on the Northern New Mexico Loop

I couldn't resist Latir after reading about Mags' trip to the area:

Although... Another good option exists that would spend more time in the Rio Grande Gorge (heading south, then east), then bypass Latir in favor of more time spent in the Columbine-Hondo WSA, much of which looks to be equally wild and scenic, albeit without as many nice lakes.

Latir Peak Wilderness was fantastic, though. Not a soul in there this early summer, either, with ongoing construction at Cabresto Dam and the attendant trailhead closure.

?Thanks for sharing.? I think northern New Mexico is a gem many people ignore.? Their loss. :)

Glad to see you paid it not only to the Pecos (very awesome) but also the Latir Peak wilderness. A small area that feels surprisingly remote.
