The Zuni Mountains have big, open meadows and forested slopes with peaks up to 9,256 feet. Loads of trails, lots of camping, and, typically, there aren't many people. The scenery is vastly different than the red sandstone visible from I-40...when there is rain, it is unexpectedly green. 😍

El Morro National Monument is on NM-53 between Grants and Zuni. The towering mesa provided refuge for the Zuni in the late 1200s, with multiple structures on top of the cliffs.
Runoff pools at the base. The rare, reliable source of water has attracted humans for thousands of years, with petroglyphs and etchings marking the passing of many groups of people across the centuries.

Another popular #DayTrip close to a major city is Grouse Mountain. Located in the District Municipality of North Vancouver, just minutes from downtown, Grouse Mountain has an elevation of over 1,200 m and first attracted crowds with an alpine ski area (4 chairlifts servicing 33 runs). Today it's a year round recreational playground with multiple activities for all ages.
