Location

In a small ravine among rolling hills in the Zuni Mountains south and west of Grants.

Participants

• Redaragorn

Plans

Take the dirt roads as far as I could and hike the rest of the distance to the hash point. The entire area was located on National Forest land, so access wasn't an issue at all.

Expedition

After missing out on the Albuquerque geohash on the way west, we finally made it out to Grants and headed south after the Malpais. We headed northwest into the Zuni Mountains on the bumpy road up Bonita Canyon. After a few miles, I parked the car and walked a half mile or so over to the geohash. Little squirt made the entire walk there and back on his own despite the fact that it was up and down most all of the way. He did good, and was a willing participant in my drag-along achievement.
