Regional discussion and conditions reports for the Great American Southwest. Please post partners requests and trip plans in the Southwest US Climbing Partners section.
After Sean Reedy posted this article, I did a little internet snooping. I found this map of the proposed area. I like that they have included the Wild Rivers area around the confluence of the Rio Grande and Red Rivers as well as the gorge well south of the bridge by Taos. The high peaks and the river canyons make for an interesting combination. I hope they would leave the trails and campgrounds around the Wild Rivers alone and add some trails to the tops of the peaks and elsewhere. What does everyone think of this idea?
