A Weekend of Solitude and Adventure at Vermejo

I spent the weekend at Vermejo, conservation-forward reserve owned by Ted Turner in northern New Mexico which spans over 550 thousand acres. The size of this property feels like a private national park for visitors to its boutique hotel, be it for relaxation, adventure, or a North American safari. What stood out to me most was the “choose your own adventure” method to their experience curation. After supplying a little information on my interests, I was equipped with an action-packed weekend which included a via ferrata experience (a style of rock climbing originating in the Dolomites), horseback riding, ice cream making, a picnic lunch, and a conservation tour.
