Jemez is a short drive out of ABQ and close enough to be convenient for Santa Fe and Los Alamos residents. We drove up on a Sunday afternoon and found a clean campground to setup in. We had a whole area to ourselves as most people don't camp when it looks like there is a storm but we didn't mind the drizzle. I had my own camp fire kit and used the wood other camper left at their sites to keep up warm. It's bear and hunting season so we didn't wonder too far off trail but Jemez is a great spot to wonder around in. A good friend from Dallas refers to it as NM's Big Bend
