The Taos Gorge was one of the first places in Norhtern New Mexico where I set my up portable easel and endeavored to paint what I was looking at… and I had to hold onto the canvas towards the end, a storm was moving in from the west! I’ve hike through parts of it, painted along the shore of the Rio Grande River and even went white water rafting down it during a spring melt! It is ICONIC Northern New Mexico!
