After taking last year off to take the big family RV trip, we're back to the annual men's backpacking trip! This year we'll be spending 6 days in the Pecos Wilderness in New Mexico.
Here is a map of the area that we plan to hike in:
Day 1 – Leave Michigan 9:00am
Day 2 – Arrive at the wilderness 24 hours later and start hiking.
1st night will be along Rio Santa Barbara.
Day 3 – Hike up above tree-line, past No Fish Lake and over to the South side of the ridge
2nd Night near Truchas Lakes
Day 4 – Leave camp set up, and go day hiking up to Truchas Peak, or just hang out in the quiet solitude near camp.
3rd night in the same location
Day 5 – Hike East along the ridge line
4th night near intersection of trails 26 & 36
Day 6 – Continue hiking along the ridge, heading North today
5th night near Jicarita Peak
Day 7 – Hike out by evening and start driving home
Day 8 – Arrive back home the following night

Please “...keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give [us] the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that [we] may know him better.” (Eph 1:17)
