Chamisa Saddleback Loop

When the snow has started falling higher up (or hasn’t thawed), and you want your mountain kick, this loop is a great option. Get your big climbs in early as you run along the Saddleback trail, then a satisfying descent along Burn, followed by the enchanting, gentle(?) climb up the Winsor along Big Tesuque Creek.

Expect to see a decent number of folks on the Winsor and Chamisa portions, but Saddleback and Burn are mostly empty and are great trails for running.
