Wow! I did miss some of your postings! Gorgeous shots. Loved Mesa Verde when we were there. Have not been to Taos yet.

I loved Mesa Verde, and climbed through all the ruins I could except for Balcony House. Took one look at the pictures of how to get into it, and thought better of it. Taos was a bit of a let-down for me. The Pueblo is interesting, but the town is a real tourist trap. Narrow streets, and overpriced everything. It's worth a trip though to see the Pueblo and meet the people who still live there. You will need to purchase a camera pass though to take pictures.

I have heard that about Taos and not easy parking for an RV.

Not easy is an understatement. What size rig do you have?

We have a 37 ft motorhome. My Dad went there with a 30 ft class c and said it was almost impossible. He was very disappointed.

Great images...enjoyed looking....
I wonder if Spider Canyon is one of the settings where the old motion picture, "Mackensie's Gold" was filmed?

New Mexico has some great scenery...nice shots. I remember a similar view as your highway shot - In New Mexico, as I ran out of gas on a cross country motorcycle trip. Such a solitary feeling.
