Returning from a 7-day trip across a portion of the Mountain West with my daughter’s family from Virginia, Pat & I spent two nights at an AirBnB in Arroyo Seco, NM. On our way home we stopped at the Wild Rivers Recreation Area to hike the La Vista Verde trail in the Orilla Verde Recreation Area.

I urge you to explore our hiking tracks with Google Earth. With the virtual 3-dimensional presentation, achieved by panning and tilting the view, you can get a much better idea of the hikes and terrain than you can get from the 2-dimensional screenshot above. For assistance: Using Google Earth Track Files.
