Sierra Blanca, NM This view of the mountain (no matter what season)  is one of my favorite sights and I never get tired of 1) going there or 2) looking at the pics if I cannot get out there!
The Muscalero Apache indians recently permitted hiking on Sierra Blanca starting from Ski Apache which is accessible via a road through the Lincoln National Forest. I almost made it to the top in 2007 but I ran out of water. I took the posted trail rather than hiking directly up the ski slopes which took me about 5 miles out of my way. Plans to try again with a friend from Roswell in 2008 were nixed as the Lincoln National Forest was closed due to the drought and fire danger.
