Road Trip..........

Pecos River Canyon

Last Friday we took a short road trip up Hwy. 90 North to see the 'sights'. We were heading toward the Pecos River where it joins the Rio Grande. The Pecos has cut deep canyons in the land for about 60 miles before it reaches the Rio. According to the brochure, the canyon was one of the most formidable barriers to early-day travel and civilization. (Click on the pictures to enlarge to see the details).

This first picture shows a lone Ranch House in the distance.

This shot shows the same house with zoom lens.

This is the mouth of the Pecos at the Rio Grande with Mexico in the distance.
