Watch the entrance

Holloman AFB BLM.... aka... Raptor Lake Dispersed

Great spot....but... as others have said, it IS a tricky entry for bigger rigs, especially if you are traveling South on 70. 

Sharp right turn, immediately into 2 gates with a slight curve between them, slight dip after the 2nd gate and then another curve going uphill.

We're only 34' long STD width, and used the left turn lane to turn right and get straightened before entering. I'm  glad we did an RV park the 1st night to dump, pump, and resupply. It gave us a chance to drive out and see the entry 1st hand before towing in the rig. 

Once you're in, it's  a nice spot. Verizon  & ATT both work great 3-4 bars. We got 23 OTA channels. Area was pretty clean.. Not as spread out as some places, but not on top of each other either. Stays reasonably busy even in February. 

Winds were up some on arrival. Parked accordingly and had no problem. Ground is another issue. Firm enough for parking etc, but if it rains I imagine the silty texture might turn to peanut butter. 

All in all a nice spot with the lake, mountains,  and the jets from Hollowman AFB to watch. Road noise not noticeable inside the rig.
