| Coyote Creek is nestled in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains along a meandering stream. Enclosed by a forest of spruce and pine, the small valley displays abundant wildflowers and beautiful fall foliage. The park is ideal for fishing, family camping and leisurely nature walks.The main attraction of the park is the opportunity to camp or picnic in pleasant surroundings, in a beautiful mountain setting, well away from the beaten track. Private campsites are scattered along the creek, which is sheltered by cottonwood trees and willow plants. The park's refreshing temperature offer relief during the height of New Mexico's summers, but heavy snows limit the use of the park in the winter.To increase the fishing potential, ponds have been created behind small dams constructed of natural rocks and beaver dams. The area contains a variety of game including deer and bear. |
