2015 - The year of exploration
At least for me, it will be a year of exploration. Since our motorcycle wreck, the wife and I have decided to stay off the roads as much as we can and will drive our new Xterra to places we haven't been before. There are lots of places in our own backyard we have yet to see.
Today, we will go here for a picnic: http://www.yelp.com/biz/san-lorenzo-canyon-socorro

2015 is the same for me to. I wasn't planning on doing as much in the NM area, but I'm going on the desert trip again, south CO, AZ, and NV. Then across to Florida, and Georgia. I think beginning of March I will be in the NM area.

When you said you were going to have a picnic I didn't expect to see snow.
But those are awesome pictures and that terrain is my favorite. I hope if I can retire I can do so in New Mexico. |

Great pics, and color on the Xterra. I wasn't expecting snow to be in the pics either.

The Rio Puerco area just West of Albuquerque. I went there with a group of Xterra owners this past Saturday. Had a great time just 4-wheeling. I didn't do anything stupid, though. My truck is still too new for me to do that.
This sure looked a lot narrower than the picture shows, when I was driving through it. I was the only basically stock Xterra in the group. The Frontier pickup was highly modified. |

Here's one guy going up a rock face. He did it, the white Xterra did, and the Frontier. I wouldn't even try it without a locker.
