I like the terrain in the Taos area. The mix of people is all right by me, since I consider the self delusions of art hippies to be pretty harmless. Outside town there are more lots crowded with dilapidated RVs and school buses and mobile homes than I care to be around, but also fairly harmless.
Now that reefer is legal in NM I think it has drawn in a lot of longhairs. Lot more here now than I remember from previous visits.
I bought legal weed in Cuba a couple months ago and it made my day. After spending my teen years dodging getting popped by cops <grin> it was awesome to be back there and walk into a store like a free man. Hell yeah. Let freedom RING.
Was it you mentioning climbing? There’s an area down near Socorro we used to party at called Box Canyon that I guess has become a bit of a thing. I didn’t start climbing until I’d moved to Oregon.
