Cack to the trailhead – into the sun – the La Milagrosa Trail. December 2014.

There is still snow on the mountain – but rather than join the crowds at the top we took advantage of the weather at the bottom. In summer the La Milagrosa Trail has a merciless lack of shade, best avoided – but right now the weather is perfect for this trail.
