I was able to get out for another solo ride.  I'm still hoping to get at least one more before the area is closed for the winter, if the weather stays cooperative.  The snow we have already limits some of the area I can get to.  Still managed to cover about 86 miles total.  I figured since it's towards the end of the season this year I might as well go as long as I could.  It wasn't as cold as my last ride, but still cold.  Started out in the low 20's.  At least there were no "oh, crap" moments on this one, it was an uneventful ride.  As usual, I took a lot of photos.  I did see 6 deer (all does) this time, but they weren't interested in staying around to let me take any photos.  Rode to the lower elevation side of the Jemez where I ride, so there wasn't too much snow on the ground.  Here are a few of the photos I took.

Great shots. I'm surprised they haven't closed the gates already. I guess they need a little more snow. Glad you had the chance to get another ride in.

I was glad too.  Usually the end of December is when they close them unless there is a lot of snow, I wasn't sure after the big snow in November though.  Hoping for 1 more, if the weather holds out.
