After having a nap, coffee & cigar, I decided to take a drive into Six Mile Canyon this afternoon.
Since the canyon will be closed for the winter starting December 15, one must get as much driving in as they can.
There were more people driving in the canyon than I've seen before. Still, the canyon in Cibola National Forest is big enough so that there's no traffic problem. From a road sign I found, it appears Six Mile Canyon is more than just six miles.
Today, I went as far as the small valley or meadow area. I tried out a side road in it that I haven't driven on before. It leads back to Six Mile Canyon Road.
I didn't see any livestock or any other animals while in the canyon (I guess the viewing of a kitten with a tarantula earlier at home suffices).
Some photos:
