It took about 4 hrs for us to drive from Elephant Butte to the Hot Well Dunes Recreation Area in Arizona.
We transited through Hatch, NM enroute.
The place was nearly empty when we arrived but would soon see other rigs show up later. Still, we had an opportunity for a good long soak in one of the cement hot tubs to ease weary muscles from the driving of late.
Sunny and in the low 60s for a high in terms of temperature.
Camping near the hot tubs since we don't have a towed vehicle.
Altitude: 3461, we woke to 31° F so not too bad but we had the cat propane heater running since early morning keeping things warm inside the VRRV.
As Martha relaxed in the late afternoon sunshine and warm temps, I headed out on Yagi, my TW200 to check out the dunes.
The dunes are criss-crossed with tire tracks from ATVs and OHVs mostly though you see single tracks as well.
We're planning on a few days here then we'll move on further west towards Phoenix.
