Cuba Hwy Pulloff on Forest Road 88

I am a new New Mexican and have committed to spending the next couple of years learning my favorite sites to stop and to linger, using Dyrt as my primary guidance..

This is a good site for me to stop, but the proximity of traffic sounds (I camp in a converted minivan, so I took a spot relatively close to the road) means it’s not a great place for me to linger. If you have something that can tackle rough roads, try higher up. It might be quieter up there.

Now, at night, it’s very quiet m, even down here. Hardly anyone is on the road at night so once it gets dark this spot is quite peaceful.

And it is pretty and the first few spots are level enough for me (not super level but not falling-out-of-bed slanted). I travel self-contained. There are no amenities here, just ground you can park on, so it’s a boondocking stop.

It’s only 7 minutes to Cuba, which makes this an excellent stop before or after re-stocking.

Clean and pleasant. But loud during the day. I got enough cell signal (Verizon) to work on homework and writing. I could watch videos but with a lot of buffering time first.
