Cool drive. Zero technical. Go from dense woods to red rocks and arid. Can see white sands on the west end

Started at La Luz and turning onto Bailey Canyon. Trail was dry and the road was in good shape with no really difficult spot. Saw some Elk and deer along the trail.

Trail was very easy. We had a light snow the night before we went but the trail was very easily passable. I think we put our trucks in 4WD one time just because of some ruts and snow and didn't want to slow the group down. A few spots were muddy but they had a solid bottom.
