Day 189 – Jemez Mountain Trail

Day 189 of Year Long Road Trip Along America’s Scenic Byways

Echo Amphitheater

It turned out that a geocache was hidden just down the road from where I camped in Carson National Forest.  I found it not too far from another makeshift campground which included a homemade toilet – a wooden box with a toilet seat covering the hole.  After finding the cache, we took 84 south past farmland to Echo Amphitheater, a natural echo chamber carved into a sandstone cliff by wind and water. 

Petey joined me in the short, paved walk to the cliff where I hollered GO MAVS and listened as the walls repeated my exclamation.  This location in New Mexico is also a virtual cache, so I got to log another one!

ON THE ROAD AGAIN!
