Socorro, NM

During our 5 months in the States we periodically passed through Socorro and would stop to climb at "The Box" for a few hours. The sharp ryolite make for some pretty good climbing and the local crew is always down for getting out.

So I have been doing more than just birding here in the States. Here's a few pics from Box Canyon near Socorro, NM and a word from Pie Town.
