Small reservoir with shoreline, cottonwoods and open prairie — good for reflective water shots, migratory and resident waterfowl, and wide New Mexico skies at sunrise/sunset. Best light is golden hour for warm tones and dramatic clouds; spring and fall bring more birds and color. Park is reachable by car off Base Line Rd; basic day-use access and parking available near the picnic/boat launch area (entrance fee may apply). Trails are short and generally easy; expect few crowds on weekday mornings
