Some shots of Valles Caldera Nat'l Preserve near Los Alamos, NM

Outside from Hwy 4


Sheriff Longmire's cabin (a bucket list must see stop for me)


Nice view from the cabin


Further in on one of the dirt access roads


It's during the 'rut' season - so the whole time we heard elk bugling from the forest.

Longmire has been one of my favorite tv shows. I knew the show was filmed in NM, but wondered exactly where his cabin was located. Is it just off of Highway 4? Last time we were in NM we were on Highway 4 between White Rock, Bandelier and Jemez Springs.

We did the Hwy 4 "loop" counterclockwise starting in Santa Fe to Jemez Springs. Stopping off at Valles Caldera/Longmire Cabin, then Jemez Falls campground, Los Conchas trailhead, Battleship Rock, and Jemez Springs - what a gorgeous drive!

Entrance fees to Valles Caldera have been waived, so we got in free - drove the dirt road from the entrance to the "cabin district" where Longmire's cabin is located. I asked the Ranger how many people mention they are here to see the cabin - he replied only about 10% mention it specifically. I think we saw 5 cars total while there.

Valles Caldera entrance is signed right off HWY 4 - you drive a dirt road to get to the Entrance Station. You have to go in and get a hang permit for your car (free) and they give you some free handouts. Then it's another mile or so on the dirt road to get to the cabin district - take the first fork to the right - and there it is.

We were there in 2013. Did not know about Longmire's Cabin at that time. Did you stop at Bandelier National Monument? For that trip one of my main goals was a ride on the Cumbres & Toltec Nrrow Gauge RR up in Chama.

We did Bandelier in 2009 before the fires swept thru - so did not stop there this time to see what it was like.

We did the Cumbres & Toltec Oct 2017 - A....mazing! The fall colors were eye popping!

We haven't been to Bandelier since before the fires so I was wondering what it was like after the fires. We took the C & T RR in June 2013, so no fall colors but the scenery was beautiful. Here are a few shots:

Cascade Creek Trestle. Smoke from the engine makes it look foggy.
