The Sandhill Cranes and the Snow Geese have returned to their New Mexico wintering grounds in Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge. We camped for a few nights at beautiful Elephant Butte Lake State Park and took a day trip into the refuge. In the summer the park is known for beer and boats. In the late Fall and Summer the park is known for migrating birds and solitude. That is more our style.
