A club run on La Vantana Mesa on Jul 19.. The run had been a regular run that had dropped off in the last few years. It was time to run it again. It is seldom used trail with spectacular over views and geologic formations. The trails starts just south of Cuba off the original Cuba highways that rerouted after a bridge was washed out.
