There is something about absurd wealth that breaks people's brains.

Another successful Rio Fernando cleanup day in #Taos #NewMexico this morning! I really wish we didnt have to do this, but we do. And we always get some great volunteers. Kudos to Amigos Bravos for leading the charge! #nmwx #nmwater #NMTrue.
HUGE kudos to Backcountry Hunters & Anglers, BLM, & Friends of El Rio Grande del Norte Natl Mon for leading yet another fence removal project to benefit #Wildlife. Pronghorn, elk, deer, coyote & are free to move! #RGDN #NewMexico

20+ folks came out yesterday in 92F heat to remove about 1.5 miles of old barbed wire fencing within our National Monument. The fencing was negatively impacting wildlife movement & getting in the way of great mountain biking trails. #RGDN #Taos #NMwx #NewMexico #PublicLands
Awesome people doing awesome stuff. Another restoration day today along the Rio Fernando near #Taos #NewMexico. Bit by bit we are healing this creek. #NMwx #NMwater #Rivers
My lovely wife and I backpacked a 22 mile section of the Continental Divide trail here in northern #NewMexico over the weekend. Gorgeous, empty country. #NMwx
