I will try to describe a series of short trips around Taos. The first takes you east of Taos (7000ft) on 64, up over Palo Flechado (Broken Arrow) Pass (about 9000 ft) and down into Angel Fire. AF is in the Moreno Valley at 8000 ft. Heading towards Eagle Nest, where it was -47F one winter and that's where the thermometer broke, you pass a Viet Nam Memorial on the left, built by the father of a slain soldier.
Continue north to Eagle Nest and head east toward Cimarron. You will pass by the Palisades, with a nice stream with good fishing. The movie 3:10 to Yuma was fimed in and around Taos, and the interiors were filmed in the St James Hotel in Cimarron.
A good day trip from Taos and lots of photo ops.
