Angel Peak Scenic Area, New Mexico
View Vicinity Map Recommended Maps & Books Share With a Friend
Description: This prominent twin-peaked landmark in the 10,000 acre recreation area rises to a height of nearly 7000 feet above a blue and gray shale badland that was once an ancient seabed. A mile south of the peak, juniper-sheltered picnicking and camping facilities are set on a canyon rim. Though there are no formal trails, high desert hiking opportunities abound along the rim. Half a dozen gas wells in the area provide visual reference points and remind visitors of the multiple uses of public lands. Stay late - the sunsets are usually gorgeous.

Notes: Open year round, though the area can get very cold in winter and hot in mid-summer. The road is good, but the soil gets gooey on your boots and tires during rains. High winds can quickly diminish the quality of your experience here. The campground is not recommended for RVs.
