PARKS
San Pedro Parks Wilderness
Located in the Santa Fe National Forest in New Mexico.
A high, moist plateau of rolling mountain tops with alternating areas of dense spruce and open mountain
meadows--this is the 41,132-acre San Pedro Parks Wilderness, created in 1931.
Deer, bear, turkey, grouse, and elk regularly draw hunters. Fishermen rarely leave the small high streams
empty-handed. The green beauty of the 10,000-foot-high "parks" is a satisfying reward to the hiker or
rider. The many cattle grazing in the area are an attraction to some but can be offensive to many.
A well-developed trail system provides ample opportunities for both day use and camping. There are no
jagged peaks or high rock cliffs in San Pedro Parks. Its trails and meadows are often wet and summer
showers are common.
