Makes a great trail run out to Gramont Peak and back.

Description

Blue Canyon Trail is easily accessible from Socorro and offers a quick escape. The mesa section (eastern section) is an easy hike, while the Blue Canyon traverse is a bit more strenuous and scenic.

Frequent sightings of javalina, deer and antelope.
