Description
The high desert of south-central New Mexico rises to roughly 6,500 feet here, where this BLM parcel on the edge of the Fort Stanton–Snowy River National Conservation Area offers sweeping panoramic views and a deep quiet that persists well into the night. Access is easy and the ground is reasonably level, with a fire ring on site. The Capitan Overlook Trail begins less than a kilometer away, putting ridge-top riding and hiking country right at the doorstep.
