Hi All,
Sorry I've been slow to send this out, but the NMES Taos Double Boundary event is cancelled this year. The section of South Boundary Trail from Osha Pass to Garcia Park remains closed, and when it opens it will require a significant effort to clear the blow down from the wind event last December. Additionally, reports are that Elliot Barker trail was significantly damaged during the efforts to contain the Hermits Peak/Calf Canyon fire and is going to require extensive rebuilding.
That said, I'm thinking that would be a good date if there's interest in the Cruces Basin routes out of the Hopewell Lake area. I haven't had a chance to investigate trail conditions on the CDT north of the lake, but the section south to the green gate has been cleared of down trees. Ironically we've gone from forest closures due to drought conditions to a wonderfully active monsoon season that has left things a bit too muddy to responsibly access right now (about 5" of rain in the Taos area for the month of July). If anyone has any beta on the CDT between Hopewell and Brazos Ridge I'd be very interested.
Cheers,
Nate
