[pct-l] New Mexico in March/April

[m_factor at hotmail.com (Mara Factor)]

Hi all...

Since I'm still unemployed, it's time for another adventure...

I've got a voucher for America West arilines that I have to use by the third 
week in April.  I've never been to New Mexico and I suspect that might be a 
good time of year to visit.  I'm thinking of taking one to two weeks either 
in mid-March or early April.  Thoughts on timing?

Any other thoughts on things to see, places to go, and especially, 
relatively short hikes I might be able to take while I'm there?  For hiking, 
I'm probably mostly interested in anything from short day hikes to backpacks 
up to three days long.

I know of Canyon de Chelly and will definitely plan to visit while there.  I 
know I have to hire a guide.  Any specific suggestions for how long to plan 
or what to do while there?

Is there anyone who would like to get together while I'm out there?  I had a 
great time visiting people on my road trip this past summer.  :-)  Anybody 
want to go for a hike?

Mara
