A flight from Los Alamos to Cabezon Peak, with views along the south and east side of the Jemez Mountains. February 5, 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the canyons leading through the Pajarito Plateau into the Jemez are still accessible, though none of them are really easy to get to. They take hiking or jeeping. Some of the canyons we used to visit are now much harder to reach due to fires, flooding, and changes in land ownership and access policies. Along the southeast side, the land is owned by various pueblos – Jemez, Zia, Santa Ana, Kewa, Cochiti, and San Felipe. These lands are generally not freely accessible to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cabezon Peak is more accessible than it was ages ago, but the climb is close enough to technical that I have never been compelled to climb it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
