Explore Box Canyon
From one side of the canyon the other is a total of .75 miles of breath taking scenery of the local New Mexico landscape.
Explore the Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary
Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary is an incredible place that has 3 main focuses: rescue, sanctuary and care, and education. It's important to keep these in mind when visiting, but also when you're exploring elsewhere.As WSWS is a bit far from your typical town, I recommend preparing in advance if you are camping on-site or if you plan to explore El Morro National Monument or El Malpais National Monum...
