Area Attractions
HISTORY OF THE SILVER CITY AREA SPANS THE ERAS FROMTHE ANCIENT MOGOLLON CULTURES TO THE PEOPLE OFtoday’s technology age. The Gila Cliff Dwellings National Mon-ument and visitor center are perhaps the strongest attractionin the area, providing a visual showcase of how these ancientslived. The largest collection of ancient Mimbres artifacts, includ-ing the NAN Ranch Collection, is displayed at the Western NewMexico University Museum. The Mimbres River Valley, thoughonce inhabited by pithouse and pueblo dwellers is now a sceneof orchards, hay fields, cattle and horses. The pride of large-scale mining operations is the Chino open pit copper mine onNM 152.The 3.3 million acre Gila National Forest provides many of
the reasons for both visiting the area and for making a commit-ment to live here. Lakes in the immediate region include LakeRoberts and Bear Canyon, Bill Evans and Snow Lakes. Addi-tional attractions include Additional attractions include pictur-esque Glenwood to the north and City of Rocks State Parkbetween Silver City and Deming.

ONE OF THE ATTRACTIONS ALONG THE TRAIL OF THEMOUNTAIN SPIRITS NATIONAL SCENIC BYWAY IS THE533-acre Gila Cliff Dwellings National Monument. Here youcan see the homes and catch a glimpse into the lives ofNative Americans who lived here between seven and eighthundred years ago. Along with the ancient ruins, themonument features a visitor center and museum.From Silver City there are two ways to travel to the
monument. The first is to go north past Piños Altos on NM 15, a winding, mountain forest road. Here, trailers overtwenty feet long must take an alternate route on NM 61/35.The other route is through the Mimbres Valley north from
NM 152 off US 180 east of town. This route is 25 mileslonger, but easier and takes the same amount of time –about two hours. Call ahead for hours and road conditions;(575)536-9461.

SILVER CITY SPRANG TO LIFE DURING THE SUMMERof 1870. The discovery of silver brought thousands of miners, andmerchants followed in their footsteps. The town's founders decided Silver City would be “built tolast.” In 1880, an ordinance was passed requiring masonryconstruction for new buildings. This left behind solid commer-cial buildings, brick Victorian homes, and adobe structures.Devastating floods between 1890 and 1910 washed away theoriginal Main Street and all but one of its handsome brick build-ings. The stately Warren house is the sole survivor. What usedto be Main Street is now known as the Big Ditch.The Silver City Visitor Center and Big Ditch Park provide
gateways into Historic Downtown for visitors and residents. Silver City MainStreet Project has provided comprehensivedowntown revitalization services since 1985. This vibrant award-winning district has over 200 entities including retail and servicebusinesses, art studios, government services, nonprofits,churches, and schools. It’s a treasure of a downtown!

WHEN SILVER CITY’S FOUNDING FATHERS CREATED THETOWN SITE IN THE LATTER 1800S, THEY LAID OUT THEgrid like those of many eastern cities – with the streets running due north, south, east and west. They did not realizethat the new town’s proximity to a north/south running slopewould encourage a natural disaster to occur.
In 1895 and again in 1903, flash floodwaters roared downSilver City’s Main Street, gouging out a huge ditch with a bottom some 55 feet below the original street level. As rainscontinued to feed the creek in the years that followed, cottonwood trees grew, providing shade.
The town’s Main Street was gone, but every adversity carries with it the seed of an opportunity. Working together,local businesses, residents and civic organizations created abeautiful and unique downtown park.
Big Ditch Park can be accessed via the footbridge at theSilver City Visitor Center parking lot.

EXCEPT FOR THE ASPHALT ON ITS MAIN STREET, DOWN-TOWN PINOS ALTOS LOOKS MUCH LIKE IT MIGHT HAVE appeared nearly 150 years ago, when it was inhabited by thelikes of Judge Roy Bean. The town’s amenities, however, havegreatly improved in the last century or so. They include a museum, dining establishments and an authentic western bar.Gold was first discovered in the area by Spanish and
Mexican miners. Anglos rediscovered the metal in 1859/60,and for a while the town was called Birchville after the firstman to find “color.” Nearly abandoned due to constant fightswith the Apaches, it was re-established in 1866 under its orig-inal Spanish name.Pinos Altos is located along the Continental Divide, six
miles north of Silver City on NM Highway 15.

LOCATED JUST 34 MILES SOUTH OF SILVER CITY, THE CITYOF ROCKS STATE PARK IS THE PERFECT PLACE FOR Afun-filled day trip or picnic with the entire family. The park fea-tures giant monoliths that were formed from the eruption ofan ancient volcano and eroded by the wind over an extendedperiod of time. These huge, unusually shaped boulders areperfect for sightseeing or climbing. For some, the park resembles a medieval village; for others
it is a collection of misshapen, albeit benign, giants. Essen-tially, it is a flat-lying sheet of reddish lava jointed along verticalrather than horizontal planes creating the likeness of a citywith streets and buildings. There are formations which readilysuggest giants’ chairs, prehistoric monsters, or creatures ofimaginative myth.Complete with a desert garden, the park offers picnicking
and camping spots. Adjacent to the formations rises TableMountain, a perfect example of a mesa.

STRADDLING THE GILA RIVER, CLIFF ON THE NORTH SIDEAND GILA ON THE SOUTH, THESE TWO SETTLE-ments together total perhaps 500 habitants and are closeenough that the newcomer might see them as blending intoone town. Don’t be fooled. Each has its own post office, zipcode, and defenders. Cliff has the BBQ café, gallery, minifarmers market, filling station, fire station and school (K-12);Gila has the library, medical clinic, and tennis courts. Both retainan attachment to a rural ambiance based on irrigation agricul-ture that is uncommonly lovely, increasingly rare, and takes youback in time as you drive the Gila Valley, upstream or down,on either side of the river. True tales are still told here. TomLyons’ LC Ranch, based in Gila, was New Mexico’s largest at1.5 million acres circa 1900. Along nearby Rain Creek, Carland Blue Rice killed New Mexico’s last grizzly bear in 1931.Meanwhile, the bucolic agricultural vistas will have you in areverie of settling down on your own green parcel, with home-grown food, 5 acres, and independence.

EVERYONE DREAMS OF FINDING THATQUIET LITTLE TOWN NESTLED IN THE mountains with a creek running through, the creature comforts a traveler needs, yet retaining a 1950s ambiance.That dream is Glenwood. About 60 miles northwest of SilverCity, Glenwood is surrounded by the Gila National Forest. Thatmeans plenty of public lands for the adventurous, like the SanFrancisco Canyon (bass, catfish, hiking and birding) or White-water Creek (spectacular vistas and the creek is filled withtrout). Stop in at the Forest Service Ranger Station for mapsand information. Glenwood also has a state fish hatchery, al-ways fun for the kids, with a public fishing pond and picnic area.A motel and several B & B style inns will put you up comfort-ably, the general store will keep you supplied. On up the roadabout 8 miles is Alma, last stop on Butch Cassidy’s OutlawTrail in the 1890s.A few miles east is the tomb of Sgt. JamesCooney, a gold and silver miner scalped by Apaches. There isa combo general store/café and you’ll want to explore MineralCreek, usually dry in town but a forest road takes you upstreamto another marvelous canyon and more trout.
