I was heading to New Mexico to hike up to Sierra Blanca Peak, and on the way I decided to hike up to Mount Taylor.

I had driven past Mount Taylor a number of times on I-40, but had never hiked it.

Mount Taylor is one of the 3 sacred Navajo Peaks, so that piqued my interest in it.

This turned out to be a nice hike. The first mile or so was in a forest, but then the rest of the hike was mostly in a high alpine meadow that had some nice views.

The hike is a class 1 walkup, and the trail is easy to follow. There is a turn or two in the early part of the hike, and I guess that you could miss a turn if you weren't paying attention.

This turned out to be a nice hike and I am glad that I did it. I imagine that I would hike it some more if I lived in the area, and perhaps I'll do it again if I am passing through and have some time on my hands.
