This web site is a hiking guide to the Sandia Mountains. I give trail descriptions and advice on about 40 separate day hikes in the Sandia Mountains, covering more than 50 separate trails, and 250 miles. If you follow the rough outline shared here, all of the major (and many very seldom-traveled) trails can be covered within a year.

What's new on the web site?

• New link to the Friends of the Sandia Mountains, an organization dedicated to education, preserving, and protecting the mountains.

• 350 Sandia Mountain GPS points are available for downloading (updated with 50 additional points of interest in January, 2005)

• Read about my climb up Mt. Kilimanjaro (This isn't related to the Sandia Mountains, but it was a fun trip.)
