It has been consistently warm and dry for nearly two weeks now, with many days quite breezy. That’s June in central New Mexico: our driest month, and one of our warmest.
And the national forest is just over there, as you know. Conditions are essentially the same at Deer Canyon, except that we are in a piñon-juniper forest instead of a tall tree forest.
Be careful out there, folks!
