Stone Lions hike or Frijoles Canyon hike (Bandelier Nat'l Monument)

Due to trail closure above the Upper Crossing - the Stone Lions hike will have to be done as an out/back hike from the Visitor's Center.  This is a 13 mile hike, net elevation gain is 2850'.

If participants prefer - we could do the Ponderosa Campground/Upper Crossing/down Friloes Canyon to the Visitor's Center.  This is ~8 mile hike, with a net loss of 1300'.  

Both are 8 hour hikes.

 Bring lunch, 2 quarts water, rain jacket, hiking shoes.

Send an email to jdewart@q.com if you'd like to come.  If we are lucky enough to have a huge snowstorm before this hike - we'll have to rethink!
