Very nice look. Some great motels, some in safer locations than others.

Nice❤

Where is that water?

If you make a trip to the test site, here's a few pointers for a well planned experience. Its open on one day only each in April and October. Its on the vast White Sands military area, otherwise closed. Read about the practicalities by searching for : usmil trinity open house. You can either join a convoy from Almagordo or you can enter independently at a marked gate off the 380 on the north side. I recommend choosing the October date, for fine blue sky days and something else I'll mention later. Once at the site there are displays, a cairn marking the event and also the remains of the tower legs. A bus ferries visitors to the MacDonald Ranch house where the device sections were finally put together. Volunteers give lectures and answer questions. Combine a Trinity visit with other things in the general area as its kinda in the middle of nowhere ! Whereas the north-west quadrant of New Mexico which many people will have in mind when they think of the state, is rich with scenery, attractions, great driving and things to do, down here well south of Albuquerque, its much more sparse, things are far apart and much of it not so scenic. It will make for a richer trip if you plan a whole circuit to justify your reaching to the Trinity site. If you've seen the film Contact, those rail mounted radio telescope dishes are the Very Large Array. Its between Datil and Magdalena. You can get a guided tour of the facility, or just wander around yourself in the outside parts. Its a memorable experience. I suggest you stay at an interesting lodging called Magdalena Hall, quite historic from the busier days of cattle transportation. Try to visit the VLA say on the day before the Trinity visit, otherwise you'll be squeezed for time for the latter. If you do do them both on the same day, get as early as you can to the VLA and be quick. There's a lot of driving, which is slow within the base by the way and you might run out of time to do everything if you don't prioritise Trinity on your day. Heading east after the Trinity visit you'll arrive in the evening at Roswell, iconic in UFO lore. On the way if its still open when you reach it, in Lincoln there's a little tribute place to the iconic forest fire ranger service Smokey Bear. In Roswell there's various quirky retail and fun alien themed cafes and minor attractions ( don't expect too much ! ) and in the morning you can visit the pretty good museum to the alleged incident and the subject in general. Heading south and past Carlsbad, there is a truly world class experience of the Carlsbad Caverns National Park. Book your entrances in advance if you can to be sure of access. I suggest walking down through the big cave mouth all the way down. Its pretty easy and safe unless you really have a leg problem. There's a lift to get out. Great use of subtle lighting is used to illuminate the amazing natural features. In the early evening there's a park ranger lecture in amphitheatre seating overlooking the cave entrance you walked into in the morning. At a known time, hundreds of thousands of bats will fly out of the cave in spectacular fashion. You won't regret coming here and its memories for life. Also, because of its remoteness its hard to see any other itinerary that really justifies it. Because you already have made a point of visiting the Trinity site, and made a way point by Roswell, well here you are ! I suggest after the caves visit you stay in Carlsbad, or Artesia a little further north. The drive from Artesia westward to the mountains becomes really scenic later on. Up and over you go to Almagordo. Don't miss the historic and dilapidated mountain train trestle bridge on the hill down into town. There's a pull in for you to stop and take photos. In Almagordo there's a respectable museum to the space program. Carry on south to White Sands National Park. A unique place as you may know. If the ground is wet be very cautious and slow otherwise you'll get gypsum sand setting hard on the underside of your car. Maybe leave it back at the visitor centre and take a ranger tour if available. Walking in the park is pretty limited really but you've just got to see the uniqueness of the place. Oh and - bring sunglasses. Don't get blinded by the reflecting sun off the white sand and put your driving at risk. A little beyond the national park is a turn off for another military access site. There's a "Missile Park" display of many many historic missiles and other equipment from the 40's up to 80s or 90's, out in the open air. Back on the highway it heads for El Paso and Las Cruces, where I suggest you overnight. Head north on I-25, passing through the weirdly named, Truth or Consequences, to get back to where you started in this circuit i.e. Socorro area. Now, I said earlier I would pick the October date for Trinity over the April one. The reason is the timing of the Albuqerque International Balloon Fiesta. It lasts a week, but look at the calendar for it and notice the two "Special Shapes" days. Visit the festival on one of these days ! Don't mistake that you won't be excited by hot air balloons. This is different and, like Trinity and the Carlsbad Caverns, you will have memories for life ! Just search for ' special shapes day' images and video and you'll see what I mean. On the day you go ,arrive really early before sun rise. Park the car, grab a hot burrito breakfast. You might be surprised to know that you are allowed to mingle in among the balloons as they form up for flight. As light comes the first of them float off. Trust me, load a high capacity memory card in your camera ! Its non stop jaw dropping amazement. Take a look online ! By mid morning they're all gone. During the day there are side shows and a few balloon sport events. I would say leave for the mid section of the day, e.g. go to Sandia mountain for the cable car and chairlifts there. Then come back in the evening for a repeat of the morning ascent but this time all in the dark for what they call the "Glowdeo". Again , spectacular and a whole new fun vibe in the evening. Afterward there are fireworks and bands playing. The special shapes days are approximately a week removed ( historically this is true ) from the Trinity site access day - which is about the right amount of time to do the Trinity-Roswell-Carlsbad-Armagordo-White Sands-Socorro circuit plus visit Albuquerque's many attractions prior to attending your special shapes day of the balloon fiesta. The city is a surprising place ! There's much more to do in ABQ than say, Santa Fe ( unless you're heavily into art ). Of course if you want to widen your trip in New Mexico, then this time of October is ideal for climate and skies. The north west quadrant of the state is so gorgeous visually and for driving. I'm sure you know of or will find out the various gorgeous places and drives to experience. However I'll mention something because of the Trinity thing. Up at Los Alamos, is the historic site where it all happened - those thousands of scientists, engineers and support staff who worked on the Manhattan Project in secrecy. The boys boarding school that was taken over for the original building, can be visited. There's a museum to the project beside it. Present day Los Alamos facilities are of course secret and off limits, but you still feel the vibe just by being there. A couple of relatively obscure but wonderful mentions, that you might want to involve in this trip. Pie Town - LOL, just look it up on CZcams, especially the old news station reports from about a decade ago. Pie Town is just a little bit west of the VLA. The other thing is about an hour west from ABQ, called Acoma Sky City, which is a mesa of the Haak'u tribe, who drive you up give you a walking tour of the mesa top village and explain their quite unusual culture. I hope you enjoy your visit to Trinity site and the other things I suggest on this circuit. Because of their remoteness its hard to justify them individually but if you combine these places on the one trip its makes for a really interesting circuit.

Did the workshop with Mike Renals in 91. IN TAOS N M WHAT AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE. GO RENT A EARTH SHIP AT GREATER WORLD. YOU'LL NEVER LOOK AT A HOUSE THE SAME WAY AGAIN.

I wish i had a time machine, new mexico used to have the best best mexican food and now its ALL messed !

This is awesome. Grew up near many farms and bought food directly from farmers both pre-pick and Upick. Hope this is still going on. This is great memories for the whole family!

I just purchased a 1979 Pimental Concert #2. I love it. Wish I knew more of its history.

Do you believe that it would be Participation, when you have the Ear, and View, to a personly Home, of Someone, similar to watching it on Television, or do electronic Devices nihilate the Participation into pragmatical Matters? VXC - False Gods: czcams.com/users/shortsocHYWJiENl8

ion feel like it mb

Traditions and ceremonies bullshit. These were fortresses designed by slave owners, forced labor, and slavery. There’s a myth that at the end of this dynasty there was a rebellion where the structures and their contents were destroyed by the slaves themselves. F the Anasazi

According to those that have records passed down, These were slave built, using people extremely violent times where people were slaves so it wasn’t so fun and cool for these indigenous folks to fight off assholes who came in and took their lives away from them

Pretty lady

I'm iinn... Where Can join?

why did you let that 1st beauty go?! Fish fry. yum!

When you dance you look stupid

Wow that Burger looks delicious. 😋

This add did two things. It made me never want to visit new Mexico and it also made me upgrade my HBO max to add free so wouldn't ever have to see it it again.

LOL LOL LOL too damn funny legacyThis is the most retarded commercial I've ever seen😮

Rest in Peace Mr. Silva.

All the facts you cited are incorrect.

Who ever she is ? She Beautiful !!🙂

INDIGENOUS PRIDE BABY 🗣️🗣️🗣️‼️‼️‼️

It sounds like there isn’t a definitive history of this group, just pure speculation

It stands the test of time because you guys are constantly repairing it. Don’t make it sound like it’s some miracle of engineering.

Ces constructions de maisons semblables aux constructions du Maroc, peut être les musulmans de 'Espagne qui ont construit ces maisons

Visited museum 5/22/2024. What an interesting part of New Mexico history. Loved it! Wish I could’ve eaten at the Whistle Stop Cafe there. Closed Wednesday.

i was here in 1974 still interesting.

His hads was not working😅

Good song, but definitely the battle cry for gentrifying white transplants lmao

My Dad's from there. He, an uncle, my half brother (from my Mom's first marriage) climbed that hill on a vacation. I was too small to go and was not happy that they left me behind, lol.

Real

The Dark Skies map online looks pretty good for finding nearby dark skies. If I want some of the darkest from Tucson, I just go east less than 2 hours drive and there's some camping sites south of the highway, I believe in a National Forest. There are probably some dispersed camping sites (free) down there in addition to the pay sites.

The Award for Extreme Idiocy goes to: Native American "Traditional" Dancer, with Plastic Hoops, declaring Mother Earth as Sphere.

It's my dream to make my own house like this.

Still looking for this womans name. Found the producer... I would love to see more of her dancing.

Man these places look fantastic. I'm hoping to visit someday soon. Greetings from the Philippines 🇵🇭✨👋🏼

I went there back in 95 when I was 12, it was during the summer and there lots of people there.
