Hike to the Trampas Lakes in Carson National Forest
This hike is worth its weight in gold. By far one of the most beautiful places in all of New Mexico. Located in the Carson National Forest, the options for camping are limitless. Did I mention this is ranked one of New Mexico's best hikes yet it rarely gets done. The potential for solitude is very likely.The drive to the trailhead is a bit of a doosey. Start by heading east out of the tiny tow...
Hike to Clear Creek in Cimarron Canyon State Park
Head North from Eagle Nest towards Cimarron, and about 7 miles (or less) on your right hand, you will find two big signs with a parking area on both sides of the road. If you park on the right side, walk on the inside of the guardrail until you find the trail head sign. If you parked on the left side, just go across the street and do the same.
With a few small/ medium waterfalls, small bridges,...

At least on the weekend.The trailhead is at the parking lot for Ski Santa Fe. You'll climb from 10,250 to 11,700 feet elevation at Lake Katherine. If you're feeling ambitious, you can hike Santa Fe Baldy f...
Hike to Nambé Lake
Starting at the ski basin above Santa Fe, where parking is ample and the drive to reach it is staggeringly beautiful, you head north from the bottom of the parking lot from a well marked trailhead. The climb starts right out of the gate, and at a starting altitude of 10,000 ft above sea level you feel its toll right off the bat. This hike isn't overly long at 6.2 miles out and back, but the s...
