University of New Mexico students took to the San Pedro Mountains earlier this month for a three day backpacking trip. Students enrolled in the UNM Honors College Anthropology and Archaeology of Trails program spent the semester taking day hikes in Albuquerque and elsewhere in New Mexico. This backpacking trip was a part of the course’s final project. Students hiked for an hour and a half into the mountains before setting up camp in the snowy wilderness. Students cooked food over a fire, stargazed, hiked and engaged in other outdoor activities for the duration of the trip.
