Tour Divide at Pie Town, NM

I drove up to Gallup Saturday afternoon and drove back Sunday afternoon. On the way back, I decided to see if I could intercept Tour Divide ride leader, Matthew Lee. The last fix I had on him was he was halfway down NM 117 at 1:30 PM. By the time I got down there, it was 6:30 and he was well past Pie Town. I did see his track however!

Also I may have driven right past his camping spot. It seems he is camping near Old Horse Springs. I drove right by there but it was dark. I expect to see him tomorrow evening.

Here is a pic of the mountains near Pie Town just north of US 60. I had forgotten how beautiful of place this part of NM is.
