Location

West of Robledo Mountains

Participants

  • Fugads with my two kids age 1 and 3.

Plans

Going to attempt this one in the evening while out geocaching in the area.

Expedition

My first attempt at reaching a geohash. Been watching the local has-points for a whikle now and this one seemed like a good one to get with the kids while doing a little geocaching in the area as well. We drove up Coralitos ranch road and turned off onto the dirt road which headed towards the geohash. For the first 2 miles the road was in good shape, but after we passed a delapidated rnach-house and well structure the road was wet and muddy from a recent T-storm. Not having a vehicle suited for long stretches of mud, we had to end our pursuit while still 1.4 miles away. I wasn't prepared for a 3 mile hike with the little ones today. Still a gorgeous evening to be out and a fun area to explore. The Robledo's to the east contain Paleozoic trackways, and the Rough and Ready Hills to the west have some fun sport climbing.
