Drone Video San Juan River New Mexico True Aerial Photos

Return to the San Juan River in northern New Mexico

The very green and beautiful San Juan River flows for miles through New Mexico.  This portion of the river is near Navajo Dam, an area I first visited in February.  I only had time for a quick drone flight over the dam area itself, but on this trip I was able to fly over a large stretch of the river!  I was out on another rural land property assignment, but now since I have my own off road capable vehicle (Jeep Renegade Trailhawk), I no longer have to rush back to Albuquerque to return the rental truck to Enterprise so I can stay in places like this with Jessica and the dogs at our leisure!  

The dogs liked swimming (Kiki) and swatting at passing leaves (Artie) in the river while Jess and I saved our swimming time for Navajo Dam Lake which we visited right after leaving the river.
