Sandia Crest Trail: Part 1 (Hiking the whole North Crest!) 

Come along for a long hike of the entire Sandia North Crest Trail from the trailhead in Placitas, NM all the way up to Peak of the Sandia Mountains. Lucky you, you get to view it all as a "Quick Trip".
Sit back and enjoy the changing scenery and ecosystems, hiking through multiple life zones while gaining 4,500 feet in elevation. Hard to believe we're still right outside Albuquerque!
