Description
After a long day of driving I was eager to get out to stretch my legs for a hike at Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument (between Santa Fe and Albuquerque NM). I first chose the Canyon Trail, a 1.5-mile, one-way trek through a narrow slot canyon in the lower reaches, followed by a steep (630-ft) climb to the mesa top for excellent views of the Sangre de Cristo, Jemez, Sandia mountains and the Rio Grande Valley. The effects of wind and water erosion can be clearly seen, and probably best appreciated, in the narrow canyon portion of the hike. The structures formed as a result of volcanic eruptions that occurred between six and seven million years ago in the Jemez volcanic field. The eruptions left a layered field of sandstone, pumice, ash, and tuff over 1,000 feet thick. Differential erosion of the different rock types resulted in the formations we see today. Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument used to be a little-known BLM site but has become a very popular hiking location since becoming a National Monument in 2001.
