Hi. I am planning an attempt to summit Wheeler Peak in New Mexico within a couple of weeks, but heard that the trails were closed due to the fires. My goal is to start hiking from Taos... Curious: has anyone made any attempts to summit this beautiful place within the last month? If so, will you please let me know if your attempts were via the Taos side of the mountain or the Red River side?
Also, what were the trails like? Water availability? etc.?
Thanks!!!
