Atalaya Mountain Run

Santa Fe is a great trail running town. Really, that is the best option - no Galloping Goose or Burke-Gilman. The best is running up Atalaya Mountain.

It starts at St John's College, which is at about 7,600'. The summit is at 9,121'

Round trip "they" say is 7 miles. But it took me an hour and 53 minutes

The pics from start to summit are self-explanatory



The first mile is relatively mellow, gently up...often sharing the road with seasonal "arroyos"...
