Panoramic photo of High Lonesome, 
Chaves County, New Mexico

•  High Lonesome, Chaves County, New Mexico

This panorama is a view from the north side of NM 70. From the former High Lonesome site one can look west to the Pecos River Valley. It's an example of the high plains of New Mexico. The place name High Lonesome is found in 14 of New Mexico's 33 counties. But this particular place, 20 miles northeast of Roswell, is truly high and lonesome.
