Lodging
• Initially the plan was to hold this event at
the Kachina Lodge, which had
worked well for our 2oo8 and 2oo9 Forays.
However, poor communication from, and other concerns about the Kachina,
led the Foray Committee to seek a different venue.
The committee chose instead the Sagebrush Inn, which became the new
location of choice for NMMS' Taos Forays.
• Some participants at past Taos Forays had chosen to stay instead
at the SnowMansion, which offers more
rustic lodging, including campsites. It is located in Arroyo Seco, about
12 miles north of our Foray Headquarters at the Sagebrush, and about a
25 minute drive. It's not certain if any of the 2016 participants stayed
at that location.
Foray Schedule
Notes:
• The
Foray Committee encouraged folks visiting from lower altitudes
to arrive early in order to acclimate to New Mexico elevations. (Taos sits
at 7,000 feet, and Foray field trips can easily get above 10,000 ft.)
• The Foray Committee offered T-Shirts for
sale. The price was undetermined at the time this page was posted, but
the Registration Form did include a place to state registrant's size and
reserve a shirt.
