Mimbres to caballo
The day started off pretty immediately with climbing up Emory pass, the highest point we’ll hit on this trip. Also the last of the real climbing I believe. It’s more elevation than the tucker county climb but not as steep. It took two hours to climb with a 100lb bike. Very beautiful riding.
We saw some cows just chilling on the road. They got spooked when chris, who was in front, got close. They eventually ran up a little trail off the road.

After Emory pass it was mostly downhill to Hillsboro where we at lunch at a little cafe in town. We saw for the second time a dog who is riding in a motorcycle side car around the edge of the continental US.
A bit of climbing after Hillsboro then descending to Caballo lake where we stayed at a decent RV Park in a little cabin. The woman managing the place was very nice and from Harrisburg PA.
There were cats running around and one let us pet him he had a weird stubby tail.
