Santa Fe National Forest Black Canyon campground By John Gentry

John Gentry with ExploreTraveler gives some details on exploring a specific campground in the Sante Fe National Forest. It’s one of those lower-cost campgrounds that is pretty nice, and worth staying at. If you have the access pass it’s then half price and will run you about $5 – $6 dollars per day. Watch the video to learn some on-the-ground insights and make sure to subscribe for all of the content updates.

Black Canyon campground is one of the more popular campgrounds on the Santa Fe National Forest and offers the most amenities of any of the campgrounds in the Espanola Ranger District. There are 36 units for cars and RVs, 6 walk-in units for tent camping only, Picnic tables and grills, a Campground host on-site, Vaulted toilets, and several Double sites to accommodate a maximum of 16 people. There is a very nice hiking trail that leaves the back of the campground and makes a loop of about a mile, returning to the campground. If not staying in the campground, those using the trail should park outside the main gate and walk-in. Trailhead parking is available in the lot near the campground entrance. There is no electricity available, and no RV dump station on site. A dump station is available nearby for a nominal fee right next door at Hyde Memorial State Park, a part of the NM State Park system. There are additional recreation opportunities along NM 475, both above and below Black Canyon Campground, including hiking and biking trails, picnic areas, and in the winter, both nordic and alpine skiing.

Directions: Eight miles from downtown Santa Fe on NM 475. Take Bishop*s Lodge Road to Artist Road, which will turn into NM 475, also known as Hyde Park Road.

Juneau Alaska🏴󠁵󠁳󠁡󠁫󠁿🚶😊 4th of July Parade – #travel #alaska #juneau

Juneau is a very small town, and Alaska, in general, does not have too many lower 48 styles of events. The 4th of July is one of those rare holidays where everyone from remote islands, and around the territory take the time to be in town for. The small-town feel, and a BBQ afterward to end the day with additional fireworks from the locals at around 11pm.

Petroglyphs National Monument New Mexico- Rinconada Canyon Trail – John Gentry

The area of trails is made up of three of just petroglyphs and then another three for the volcanic trail system. This is the second in the series and the Rinconada Canyon Trail. The black covers a series of small hills with a large number of petroglyphs around it all the way to the top. This particular trail is well maintained and easy to get to from the main road. There are times when the trail is just large rocks that you must climb over or go around. To complete this trail you follow the signs and make sure to veer right in order to take the longer route that will allow you to see a petroglyph or two up close.
