Environment & Outdoors. Poetry Hike: Hoodoo Shadows Under the Full Moon - The Albuquerque Hiking and Outdoor Meetup (Albuquerque, NM. Waiting List Up Date: I could increase the number of people going to 16, possibly more. We have one issue that prevents that from occurring. We don't have enough people willing to commit to driving. The drive out is around 35-40 miles, 10 of which is along a dirt road. Cars can make it, but it is very dusty and rough. Anyway, as we get volunteers to drive we will add people to the hike. Sun Set: 7:59 PM Moon Rise: 7:13 PM The night belongs to coyote, maybe she will howl in greeting. By the guardian trees, below the mesa bluffs lie the hoodoos of the Ojito. On The Hike: We will hike under the the full moon from the parking area to the hoodoos of the Ojito.
