Great shot
Nick! Wonderful critters! I used to live in ABQ - where is Spring Canyon? Mt. range? nearest village? really curious. Thanks

Spring Canyon
Bob,

It looks like Spring Canyon is a separate unit of Rockhound State Park. When I visited, I thought it was its own state park, but I guess not. It's a little south of the main unit (southeast of Deming), but I can't remember exactly how to get there. It's definitely off the beaten path and has few visitors. Nice place!

Nick
