A photo story

The Wheeler Peak sign

At the Wheeler Peak summit sign, the high point of New Mexico, in October 2023. It was early, around 22 degrees, with a clear sky and a light breeze. It was my eighth state high point.

Wheeler sits in the Sangre de Cristo range, a rocky alpine summit. I got to the sign in the morning and took the photo there, then the next day I was already on Humphreys.
