Ten Reasons You Should Go On The Pecos Bus Trip
The Dallas Sierra Club would like to issue a special invitation to you
to attend our Pecos adventure over the 4th of July holiday week. Here are 10
reasons why you should consider this offer.
- The scenery will be awesome. The Pecos Wilderness has great
mountains, beautiful lakes and streams. While Pecos is east of Santa
Fe and our Bandelier trip at Memorial Day is just west of Santa Fe,
the topography is vastly different.
-
Opportunity
to summit several peaks over 12,000 feet.
- View wildlife. On our last visit to Pecos, we saw coyotes and
deer near our campsite that was adjacent to a mountain lake.
- Trips rated from moderate hiking to some really tough stuff (see the next item).
- Kathryn Hurn, who leads trip 5, has put together an itinerary to
challenge our strongest hikers to see if anyone can match her hiking
capabilities.
- Breath fresh air, getting away from the air pollution in DFW.
- Relax in a beautiful mountain environment without traffic.
- Enjoy the simple logistics of getting there on our chartered
sleeper bus. Just show up on Tuesday night, wake up at the trailhead.
Reverse the process coming home. No rent cars, no planes.
- Have fun.
- Spend time with others who enjoy the outdoors.
- Great photography opportunities. We will arrange for great light
at sunset and sunrise. Wildflowers will be at their peak.
- The star gazing will be incredible due to low light pollution
and the moon will not be up.
- Escape the summer heat in Dallas. Enjoy the cool mountains and
lake environment.
- Improve your sex life.
Ok,
so we cannot count - we just got carried away.
Early sign up will get you a better seat on the bus. |
