The view as you drive into Dog Canyon from the north

This weekend, a fire closed the southern edge of Guadalupe Mountains National Park where many visitors to the park base their stay.  Yet Dog Canyon at the north edge of the park remained uncrowded, open for business, and lovely.

Adjacent to the Dog Canyon campground, corrals for your horse!
