Beautiful sites, AWD recommended.
Beautiful sites, the road is very rocky and goes on some steep cliffs but I did see a sedan make it in towards the back. The top of the loop is where you'll find the best spots with plenty of open space and a few pits for fires. The loop is not clear road all the way around like Google suggests, I tried to drive around the loop to get out and the dirt road stopped at one point on the way back down. When you come in the route to your left is the one that breaks at some point and just generally looks like much rougher terrain. Overall I really enjoyed the area and did see some deer as well. It's not far from Cloudcroft but it is a good drive from any large stores so make sure you pack well or stop in Alamogordo before you get there.
