Yet Another Photo of Redondo Peak

This taken on a group hike up Rabbit Ridge Road.  I must be getting old because I was content to eat my lunch at the first felsenmeer while many went further in search of more views.  The cross country ski trail to this first felsenmeer is obliterated, courtesy of the Las Conchas wildfire, but still very walkable because the burnt trees have not yet fallen. These burnt aspens will not provide fall color but the walk and view are worth it anyway. Redondo Peak is on the Valles Caldera National Preserve.  The Rabbit Ridge Road hike is also but is a free hike, one of only two, accessed from the Coyote Call Trailhead on NM4.
