Santa Fe National Forest hike II

Hiked on 8/8/20 in Santa Fe National Forest, New Mexico. Found two Greater Short-horned Lizards en route; one an inch-long juvenile, reddish colored. Found fossils in the rocks on the way back, shells and such. Horses were in the meadow on the way down.
Horned lizards prefer sunny, rocky areas- loose rock interspersed with grass.
