Absolutely perfect evening on the mountain. Up here is the only place where things feel right anymore Sadly I couldn’t catch a break lining up work and weather to do the full cirque, but it’s still calling to me so I’ll come back some day. Also for Truchas traverse. Couldn’t leave Taos without at least a quick bop up to the New Mexico high point though. Was able to thread the needle between the crazy hail storm and sunset
