2023 description: 'This itinerary provides tremendous views and a taste of the history of the land during your journey. It all begins as you get off
the bus and hike to Rimrock Park, where your Ranger will continue to educate your crew. Be sure to visit Abreu and their
New Mexican Homestead so you can enjoy some root beer and soak in the legacy of the Abreu Family before heading to
Bonito Creek. Enjoy the beauty of the trail as you squeeze between Rayado Peak and Fowler Mesa for a night at Lower Bonito
Trail Camp, aka “LoBo”. The next leg of your journey has you hiking alongside Lookout Peak, Webster Pass, and Burn Peak
as you make your way to Beaubien. Be ready for an action-packed day of Western Lore, which includes roping, branding,
horse rides, and a chuckwagon dinner, topped off with an amazing Cowboy Campfire. Make your way to Black Mountain and
visit the Post Civil War Encampment and try your hand at muzzle loading rifles and blacksmithing at this camp nestled
alongside the North Fork Urraca Creek. Hiking down the North Fork the next day will be a real treat, watch out for those many
creek crossings, and be on the lookout for the Grizzly Tooth rock formation as well. Your last night on the trail will provide
moments of reflection and feelings of reward as you look ahead to the morning’s hike up to the top of the iconic Tooth of Time.
Get some rest, as you will top Shaefers Peak and the iconic Tooth of Time in the same day! Soak in the views before making
your way down Tooth Ridge and back to Base Camp. You all made it!' |
