US 56/412 Picnic Table Rest Area

 
   An internet search for a good overnight spot along US 56/412 yielded little as most of the land is privately owned or checkerboard state trust land. As far as I know New Mexico state trust land is closed to camping so it was time to take a look at the old trusty Rand McNally paper map. This little rest stop, marked with a picnic table on the map, was great – fairly quiet with a large gravel pile blocking traffic at one end so nobody rumbled by us during the night. Picnic table rest areas usually do not have anything but a place to pull off and picnic tables. Stays in New Mexico rest areas are limited to 24 hours.  36.30558, -104.18886
