Cartel has control of New Mexico border area

But is Los Pollos Hermanos still in business?

When I was at Ft. Huachuca, I overheard them on the radio (ICOMs) talking about us. They were observing us. I was later attacked on Ft. Huachuca by a drug mule. They are on the installation all the time. Huachuca Mountains go from Mexico into the US and the passes are used quite often.

Back in the pre record everything and cell phone era, US forces would hold “Training Exercises” in these areas both in the US and Mexico.. there would be some “unexpected encounters” with drug cartels..

I have hiked Mt Cristo de Ray several times. Always a little anxious when going around the blind switchbacks that I'd bump into some cartel guys.

First time I saw a guy with a long gun from a distance, almost shite my pants, ended up being a BP agent. He said he would hike to the top every shift to check for illegals.

I figured if I ever got hammered in Mexico and lost my passport that would be where I snuck back into the US. On the Mexican side is a barrio, the US side is a hiking trail.

Great views, the legendary Rosa's Cantina is just around the corner from the parking lot. Makes a great excursion if you are visiting El Paso when our border is secure.

Appoint me President for a day. That hill will be ours again in minutes.

A couple of MOAB's would fix that.



Or do we have any daisy cutters left from Vietnam?

This mountain needs to become a bombing range, today
