Rewards for Information on Wolf Killings

Day Hikes and Nature Walks, by Greg Magee

Discover the hidden treasures of the northern Chihuahuan Desert. This book describes 40 day trips into the mountains, canyons, and deserts of the Las Cruces-El Paso area. The trips are designed to appeal to hikers of all levels of ability, ranging from easy strolls along the Rio Grande to rugged, off-trail treks to the summits of isolated mountains. General information on geology, ecology, and cultural history is also presented.
