my day in Taos - coffee, lunch, library, then the Rio Grande Gorge

Here is a short description of the evening:

Elevation 9,800' No wonder I'm a huffin and puffin

A real gem of a campground, at the edge of a high mountain meadow.

A google comment says the Continental Divide Trail runs through the campground. Explains those two "Trail" signs.
