Pecos National Historical Park and Las Vegas NWR

A couple of notable places and definitely things to do when in the Las Vegas, New Mexico, area are Pecos National Historic Park and the Las Vegas National Wildlife Refuge. 

 The historical park was another of those places we did not expect much but were pleasantly surprised.   Such beautiful country!  Not only were the pueblo ruins interesting but we enjoyed a lovely hike and the scenery, complete with some snow, was awesome!

The wildlife refuge had quite a few different birds there but viewing was difficult due to distance.  Still well worth the drive and checking it out!
