Guadalupe backpacking

You need a permit to camp here. Two ways to approach with different difficulty levels, both 8 miles of backpacking and both are lovely. There’s a little cave along the trail! Easy to follow, stunning views from most of the hike and from the campsite. Call the rangers about water.
