Saturday, Jan 12 turned out not to be as cold as forecast especially since we started the hike at 11 am. The day was calm, sunny and the temperature reached 36. Five First U’s enjoyed the views from atop Boca Negra and many petroglyphs at Piedra Marcadas. We did not see nearly the 5,000 documented ones, but we saw quite a few. And we got a glimpse of a deer running to get back on the mesa top!
Scott Lake led the group that included Pam Bliss, Rick Held, Heather Gram and Kathleen Rhoad.
Pictures were taken by Rick and Scott. Unreferenced pictures were taken at Piedras Marcadas.
