Places to gather
Abiquiu, NM
After leaving Santa Fe, New Mexico and driving about an hour, you enter the landscape of vast vistas, table-topped mesas, tall cliffs, winding rivers bordered by huge old cottonwood trees, mountains in the distance and more and more beauty around every bend in the winding road. “It is not a country of light on things,” said Georgia O’Keeffe. “It is a country of things in light.”
The light, the air and the land are what bring visitors back time and again to Northern New Mexico and 21,000 acres of Ghost Ranch.
Outside of Ghost Ranch
Ghost Ranch itself has more than plenty to offer. That said, here are some places outside of Ghost Ranch that Peter and I have been to that you might be interested in seeing:
- The White Place - http://newmexicooutdoor.com/The_White_Place.html
- Echo Ampitheatre. This natural rock formation just north of Ghost Ranch is a favorite stopping place to eat a packed lunch in the picnic grounds. Walk to the base of the huge hollow area worn from the side of the cliff, call out your name, and it will be echoed back to you. The shades of red, gold and brown in the cliffs in this area make it an ideal place for photographs.
- Pueblo ruins. A little south of Abiquiu, just past Trujillos Store, there’s a small parking lot marked with a National Forest Service sign. A short but steep walk from the parking lot will take you to the ruins of the Poshuouinge Pueblo, inhabited in the 15th century. Looking down from the marker at the end of the trail you will see the remains of 700 ground floor rooms encircling two plazas and a large central kiva.
