Our fourth night was much cooler as we're starting to climb into the mountains. We had our most extravagant dinner yet consisting of sauteed asparagus and red onions. Not too bad for our tiny little camp stove, though I hope to get some more spices as our meals are tasting very similar with salt, lemon juice, and cayenne pepper being our only flavorings.
Later that night, with a newly purchased bottle of beer in our hands, we rushed back to camp to put on our rainfly after we saw massive thunderheads with lightning a-dancing on the horizon. Very lame though as the storm went around us. Boooo... I love rain.
Today we're heading higher into the mountains so I'm expecting the cooler weather to continue. We'll take the mountain roads up through Santa Fe hoping to get just past Durango tonight.
