The going gets a tad rougher as you gain elevation on the climb to Kitchen Mesa
Underway, the initial part of the trail is a gradual climb on decent trail
This is our route up to the top of Kitchen Mesa, which inclued a couple of extra loops on the return trip. Our trailhead was on the left, we hiked up and through a canyon to the scramble that took us to the Mesa top. The buildings on the far left are part of the Ghost Ranch facilities.
