Rock Formations in New Mexico

Out here in Pinon Springs, we travel 45 miles for weekly groceries and to go to New Mexico Tech for events and to use the library. It is always a thrill to go through Box Canyon where the NMT students train in rock climbing. That's my son Brendan Wenberg, a daring climber.

Pinon Springs Sandstone Formation

Yesterday, I went for a hike and discovered a new canyon with this beautiful sandstone cliff face. One of the the most wonderful things about New Mexico is exposed rock formations.
