Rabbit Ears Massif / Organ Mountains

  • Kmart, Las Cruces 1900 Bataan Memorial Las Cruces, NM, 88011 United States (map)

A strenuous hike, even by Organ Mountain standards, to one of the most beautiful canyons in the Organs

Details: Will require short stretches of exposed, steep scrambling just before the summit. The Rabbit Ears Canyon is one of the most beautiful canyons in the Organs, straight shot up rock cliffs, jagged and threatening, with variety of rock formations and hues of color resulting from different mineral components. Huge sections of the arroyo bed are simple granite rock, solid and clean, an ideal terrain for canyon lovers.

Meet at: The Kmart parking lot near Shell (Hwy 70 & Telshor Blvd., Las Cruces) MAP
