Alkali Flat GPX Track

I need to offset my substantial website costs somehow! You can download a hike/drive GPX to assist you here. Before sharing my GPX tracks with others, please remember my site is otherwise a free resource.

White Sands National Monument located near Lincoln National Forest, is a vast, white sun reflector where sunglasses aren't enough to make you stop squinting. It's a surreal experience to be be amongst these white dunes that serve as a foreground for hazy, purple mountains with nobody around. Listening to the wind whistle and feeling the prickles of hot sand hitting my legs and back as gusts blow it all over the place reminds me that there is no life nearby aside from a few puny, poor bushes sticking out of the sand.

Hire me or show me some love!

Hire/refer me as a web developer or send me a few bucks if you find my site useful. I'm not sponsored, so all fees are out-of-pocket and my time preparing trip reports is unpaid. I really appreciate it!
