Me and my 17 year old had to get out of the house.
We decided on a quick backpacking overnighter in the White Mountain Wilderness located in the Lincoln National Forest of south central NM.
The Argentina/Little Bonita loop trail is just shy of 6.75 miles.
The plan was to start hiking around 4PM Sunday afternoon so we'd be on the top in the late afternoon for the best view of the Tularosa Basin, White Sands and Valley of Fires lava flow and then drop off into the Little Bonita canyon to camp.
Day one was 4 miles (mostly uphill), day two was 2.75 miles (mostly downhill).
Since the weather was awesome, 80 for highs, 50 for the low, slightly cloudy and breezy we went with hammocks.
Saw a few elk and turkeys and had some quality guy time with zero cell service.
