With cooler temperatures just around the corner, now is the time to get ready to explore our fantastic state. Join us on Saturday, September 6 as David Ryan shows us many of the special places that you can only find in New Mexico – places that are compelling and important enough to warrant a trip across the country to check out.
To begin, the nation has only 26 UNESCO-designated World Heritage Sites. Three of them are in New Mexico. That’s more than any other state. And when you throw in our amazing landscapes, places of cultural and historical significance, and our sense of place, you have an amazing state for hiking, wandering, and exploring. It’s unlikely that any other state can match New Mexico for amazing places to explore.
David Ryan, who moved to New Mexico in 1998 (after completing the 2180-mile Appalachian Trail), is the author of Wandering in the Clear Light of New Mexico and the coauthor of the most recent edition of 60 Hikes within 60 Miles: Albuquerque. Both books are available at Travel Bug. He will be signing books at the conclusion of his talk.
