The 1,780,000-acre Coronado National
Forest extends into southeastern Arizona and southwestern New
Mexico. Here visitors can explore Foster Draw or Cloverdale Creek
and hike Bunk Robinson Peak or Black Point. Incredible views and
biological diversity make a visit to New Mexico's Coronado National
Forest unforgettable.
Skeleton Canyon, in
the Pelloncillo Mountains, is a beautiful and rugged
wilderness. It is named for the massacre of a
Mexican mule train, but is better known for being
the surrender site of the famed Apache leader
Geronimo.
