Some of the finest mountain scenery in the Southwest is found in the 1.6 million acres within the Santa Fe National Forest. Elevations range from 5,300 to 13,103 feet at the summit of Truchas Peak, located within the Pecos Wilderness. The diverse ecosystems of the Santa Fe National Forest are home to a variety of wildlife species. The ponderosa pine forests at 6,000-9,500 feet provide habitat for the Jemez Mountain salamander, northern goshawk, Merriam's turkey, Abert's squirrel and hairy woodpecker.
Recreation: A paved walking trail along the river provides access for fishing. Anglers can fish for rainbow trout. Visitors enjoy wading in the river on hot summer days. The campground offers easy driving access to several recreational sites nearby, including the popular La Cueva Picnic Site, Spence Hot Spring Trailhead, Battleship Rock Trailhead and a couple of fishing sites along the San Antonio River.
Nearby: The 163-mile Jemez Mountain Trail Scenic Byway passes amazing geological formations, ancient Indian ruins and an Indian pueblo. The area is rich in logging, mining and ranching heritage.
