The monsoons are back over northwest New Mexico, and several years of moderate drought, not complaining about a single drop! Watching these storms roll across the region are welcomed. The land needed this. So did we. 11:30 a.m. 09/14/26 #NMWX #wx #NWNewMexico

American diversity didn't start in 1776. The 575 federally recognized tribes remind us that this land has always been home to many peoples, many histories, and many futures. That story is complicated and worth understanding. #IndigenousPeoples

Display of headwear from 42 countries #VisitFarmington. Meaning in living cultures is stored in the practice around it: who makes it, when it's worn, what's said, how it's passed down. Take in the beauty. Then read the descriptions carefully, that's where the purpose lives. #NewMexicoTrue

New Visit Farmington grant puts tourism dollars back into local, recurring experiences instead of letting them leave town. Due June 30. This is stewardship economics, and it's right. farmingtonnm.org/uploads/docu...

All the dedication our youngest has shown over the past four years really paid off in her senior season. Her sisters, June and KC, along with our new son-in-law Nick, her coaches, friends, and role models, played an important role in everything she's achieving. #SalinasCali

Out here in the Valley of Dreams, the area telling a story older than memory. Each tour reminds us that we’re not just walking through history, we’re walking with it. I’m third to right with my other guide Gilbert. Check out our tours @navajotoursusa.com #HumansofBluesky #newmexicotrue

Leaving New Mexico is one thing but returning? That’s soul work. The colors just don't shine, they sing. The land doesn’t just feel familiar, it wraps around you. It teaches, it remembers, and it never forgets who you are, no matter how far you’ve wandered.

2024 results are in from @Flickr 'Year In Review'! 📸 No surprise...our travel guests favored the #1 non-phone camera on the list. As for me, I used #4 non-phone camera all year. What about you?

Who says you can’t hike in the winter? These families say, 'We love it!' The holiday break is our busiest week, guiding families, friends, and the overenthusiastic uncle narrating all. Winter hiking in the Bisti badlands is for anyone who’s up for adventure.🧡 #NewMexicoAdventures #NewMexicoTrue

A photographer asked the best spots for photos. The key lies in how light moves. In the afternoon, you'll notice long shadows and colors becoming richer. If seeking colors and contrast, we plan our walk to finish at the highest elevation along our route. #PhotographyAdventure #BistiBadlands
