Thanks, Rick! We also have motos tearing up our trails near the Pinar de la Venta entrances to the Bosque. I’m told laws forbidding them “have no teeth.”

I don’t know that area near Santa Fe, but would love to go…and I can bring a real geologist along. Let’s go!

Love your stuff, John, thanks — from me, another resident of Jalisco and frequent walker in the Bosque. Also a walker in the Barranca. I sometimes wonder how legal I am in the Bosque de la Primavera but what a joy, less than an hour from my house and I rarely see anyone. Love the pine and oak forest. The saddest problem there is the trails ruined by motorbikes. Have you discovered the mountain southeast of Santa Fe Jalisco? Some day I should hire you to do a geology hike.

I would like to make contact with John Plint concerning the fairy footstools and magic rocks in Bosque La Primavera.
I am a geologist and was the first person to describe these features in my PhD thesis in 1979.
