Sandias Morning Exercise: Old 193.
Details
Sandias Morning Exercise (SME): 2nd of a series.
Starting from the ABQ Open Space parking area at the east end of Indian School Blvd NE. We will ascend the bottom of Embudo Canyon to Old 193. Up Old 193 to it's junction with the 3-Gun Springs Trail. Descend on 3-Gun and use trail to Post Pass. We descend from Post Pass on a barely-there path known only to a few. Then on-trail for our return.
Expect sections of uncomfortably steep with difficult footing (loose rocks and ball-bearing gravel). (For example, the bottom of Whitewash Trail.)
At this stage of my life, this is a 4.5 hour hike. I plan on one food break. Approximately 2100' of elevation gain. (6200'- 8100')
No dogs, please.
