Drinks & Nightlife

Capitol Bar

Very interesting local bar with a long history in the community. Recently added brewing capabilities with a nice light brown ale and a Jailbreak IPA. Great toasted panini sandwiches and a Pretty good pizza.

Parks & Nature

Bosque Del Apache National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center

Not to be missed. Very nice loop drive for viewing wildlife During migration, times October thru February you will see thousands of Sandhill cranes, a huge variety of ducks, thousands of snow geese and frequently white pelicans. Great birding. Flocks of turkeys, javelinas, bobcat, and mountain lion, have all been spotted here. Plus the views are stunning.

Quebradas Backcountry Byway

This 24-mile unpaved road slices through the arroyos, or breaks, that give the area its Spanish name and offers both vast and intimate views of New Mexico’s geologic past. Wedged between two national wildlife refuges – Sevilleta and Bosque del Apache – and the state-run Ladd S. Gordon Waterfowl Complex, the Quebradas area also offers fleeting glimpses of desert wildlife, especially at dawn and dusk. Photography, rock hounding, hiking, wildlife watching, hunting, cultural sightseeing and backcountry vehicle touring are among the many recreation opportunities.
