We rolled in here yesterday, FHU RV sites just across the street from Riverbend Hot Springs right on the Rio Grande River. RV site includes use of hot springs. This place is decorated with lots ofWeiterlesen
Reisender Would that the Rio Grande water could be allowed to come down here to Las Cruces. Water ownership and management are major deal in New Mexico and across the southwest.
Reisender I read today more than 1/2 of El Paso water comes from Rio Grande Elephant Butte Lake
Reisender Perhaps bypassing NM, all about who pays for what water. As we discussed, overlooked critical national issue.

Hike along Paseo del Rio along the Rio Grande. This is area of old CCC built Fish Hatchery. Today like all the CCC work around Elephant Butte Lake, in shambles, neglect and disrepair. NM has some ofWeiterlesen
Reisender While there are so many poor and in need people on and off reservations, I understand NM state government spending funds to help. Yet there’s so much revenue from oil and gas industry and state income taxes, it makes you wonder where it all goes . Clearly not toward BLM,SP, CCC maintenance. Hope you enjoyed the hot springs.
Reisender You’re right about poorly maintained open lands. So sad, the state is rich in history but so many of the native people are really poor
