Santa Fe NF Dispersed near Sombodoro Mesa

Piñon-juniper terrain in the Santa Fe National Forest opens up near Sombodoro Mesa into a flat, open camping area centered on a small cow pond that draws resident and passing birds. The gravel-clay-sand access road is manageable for vehicles with decent clearance, though the surface warrants caution in wet conditions. Cell signal at the site is unreliable, and the spot sits well off the busier pullouts closer to the forest entrance.
