In mid-April we visited 2 more Salinas Pueblo missions at Abó and Gran Quivira. We also visited the White Sands National Monument. We finished our trip with a 2-day exploration of Cañada Alamosa with the School for Advanced Research

Patricia took this picture on the way back from Ojo Caliente. We don't know what made the white outlines. As with the rest of our trips, we generate as many questions as we find answers.
