The Best Camping Near Española, New Mexico

There was a bit too much activity going on for me. 3 to 4 dune buggies going around me on the tracks. Heard some popping like revving of an engine. Went motel instead

Unfortunately this patch of BLM land has been destroyed by the local residents.  Every type of garbage imaginable is dumped here, from mattresses to refrigerators to vats of oil.  Cattle roam freely and are far too comfortable with people.  Sporadically all throughout the night and morning people would tear through the place with music blasting and would shoot from random places in random directions in the dark (on a Tuesday).  This is less a "camping" area than a "tweakers sleeping in their cars" area.  It will do in a pinch, but it is worth traveling a bit further if possible.
