They are great people and expect you to stop. They were about 10 miles north of Town if I'm remembering right and some of the sweetest folks on trail. After that you branch off right on a dirt road past some fascinating old pueblo ruin sites, (don't miss them) and then into Sand Canyon which had a working windmill and good camping right there. Then it's on to El Malpais and one gorgeous lava crossing. One spot in the middle with a few big Jeffrey pines, but other than that, almost nowhere to camp as the lava will cut you to pieces. Don't even think of falling on it. The Mumms (bless them both) have a water cache at the start and later on the road leading into Grants. This was on the Ley alternate.<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Man, I hope I'm remembering this right!
