Participant Responsibility Notice
New Mexico 4-Wheelers guests and members will be meeting for a group activity as indicated below. Drivers are responsible for the safe operation of their own vehicles and should evaluate obstacles based on their own comfort and experience level and vehicle capability.
This is a volunteer recreational activity. Participants are responsible for their own safety, vehicle operation, and compliance with land-use rules.
This is a Part 2 of our run on October 3rd. The leaves hadn't changed last weekend yet so we are going back on the 18th to catch the canyon at its peak. We are starting earlier in the day which will have everyone home before dinner. This is a day run and we will not be camping.
Fall is HERE and that means cooler weather, beautiful New Mexico skies, and changing colors in the mountains.
This run is going to be a combination Ride & Photography Workshop. We will head back to the Fourth of July Canyon in the southern Cibola National Forest.
Steve Allen, who is an amazing photographer, will be giving those interested in learning some hands-on instruction on getting the most out of the changing fall colors in one of New Mexico’s most beautiful and colorful canyons. Steve and I will both be bringing our drones as well, so we can spend some time on getting great shots from the air.
Fourth of July Canyon will be at its peak for color.
Our focus will be split between the ride and the photography — fall colors, wildlife, and beautiful New Mexico landscapes. .
The meetup spot is about an hour drive from Albuquerque where 337 meets 55. We roll right at 9am.
We'll meet where 337 meets 55 right at 9:00 AM. It's an hour drive from ABQ to that corner.
So, if you’re interested in learning more about photography or drone photography, if you’re already a trained pro, or if you just need to get out in the woods and breathe some clean air, join us.
Trip Notes
- This is a stock friendly run. We'll spend most of the day in 2H/4H.
- The trails themselves are not long, we'll be focusing our time on slow moving, many stops, soaking up the woods.
