There are very good views of the Florida Mountains and the valley to the west. In the springtime many blooming cacti can also be enjoyed. The state has a nice visitor center and a very good campground. There is ...
Hike the Lovers' Leap Trail
This a short but steep trail to a saddle in the mountains with wonderful views of the surrounding mountains and valleys below. The rock formations are quite impressive. If you like solitude and quiet this is the place to go. Lots of cacti and juniper trees. If you are lucky you will be able to see some bighorn sheep.
Hike Windmill Canyon

It is a winding road with nice mountain views and a ghost town that is well worth a stop. Lake Valley ghost town still has some interesting sights to visit including a museum depicting the local history. The tow...
Hike the Aden Crater Trail
Drove fro El Paso to the crater in the Potrillo Wilderness Study area a on a series of county dirt roads. Some of the roads are quite rough. Interesting place to explore. Deep crater and large lava fields. Good views of the surrounding plains. The place is very isolated and quiet. Best to get a map from BLM if possible, many dirt roads are not marked.
