We were blessed to have been on those trails before the monsoon they received. We had to head south to leave out of Silverton.
I live 232 miles south of Ouray (Northern New Mexico). We got 5 inches of rain in just a few days. That's a lot of rain for the mountain west. Flood waters appear very quickly with little to no warning.We were blessed to have been on those trails before the monsoon they received. We had to head south to leave out of Silverton.
I was born in Durango...didn't hear of the floods in Ouray! Very familiar with the country, so sorry to see the devastation (we had ours last year in Ruidoso!)
It seems like Ruidoso has been hit pretty hard for the last 4 years.we had ours last year in Ruidoso!
Wow, “No Way Ou-ray Jose”! Yes; fire, burn scars, monsoon rains all make for a back country adventure. Hope they were able to get out ok and safely. Now where did my winch go…..?
