I grew up on 2/1/2 acres in okla surrounded by the osage hills and woods. as a result i hiked alot young and though i’ve been a city person through my career i now yearn to go back to the fields and woods and hills/mountains.
I currently volunteer at Ghost Ranch nmexico and the more i live in civilization the more i want to get out of it. i might mention i also owned and ran a B*B in Pa.for 7 years on 5 acres.
I love New Mexico and aftr my stint here would love to find a small cabin (2 bedroom) in nm near the continental divide after having so enjoyed the backpackers that came from Canada this a.m. to Ghost RAnch.
Any ideas?
Thanks
and merci.
Claire
Hi Claire,
That sounds like some fine country you grew up in.
That is so interesting that you volunteer at Ghost Ranch. Another magical place!
Are you thinking of a place along the continental divide to set up a hiker hostel, or just to meet hikers, to hike the trail yourself, or some combination? I really like New Mexico regardless.
If it were me I’d just start studying maps, think about what my priorities are, then go from there.
