ABOUT THE AREA
One of the exciting attractions in the area is the Valley of Fires, the youngest lava flow in the continental United States. This amazing sight can be seen from space, appearing as a sinuous black scar on the landscape, narrow in the middle where the lava originates and spreading out North and South as it flows into the valley. The valley is also the site of 400 year old junipers and sparrows, roadrunners and other small birds as well as bats living in lava caves. The Carrizozo Heritage museum has on display artifacts, pictures and written information reflecting railroad and ranch history. It is located in a 1940's building whic was used to store frozen food.
