Bottomless Lake State Park

Where Are We Today
Bottomless Lake State Park
Roswell New Mexico
Tonight's post is a short one about the route we took today after leaving Elephant Butte State Park.


The route took us on I-25 north, US-380 East, US-70/US-380 East, US-380 to Bottomless Lake Road.
My rating for these roads is, !-25 a 9 out of 10. US-380 a 7 to 7.5 average out of 10. US-70/US-380 is a 9 out of 10. The last stretch of US-380 I rate as a 8.5 out of 10. And finally, Bottomless Lake Road, a 9 out of 10.

 This is a very nice scenic drive, I-25 & I-70 are four lane roads and the other two are two lane. We thoroughly enjoyed the route we took today.
That's it for now, until the next time, take care and be safe. Comment if you wish.

  2. I was wondering if anyone else does highway ratings. I love to see how you rate the various roads, and refer to it when we are going someplace. You could make money if you could publish these ratings where they would be easily accessible. Maybe you could start an app?? (if you get rich, remember the name L-o-r-n-e!!!)

    1. Hi Lorne: If you go back to my post on Nov. 10th, 2017, you will see how I rate the roads. I started doing it after the rough roads we hit last winter and wanted something to remember them by. As far as developing an app, far beyond my computer savoy.

    1. This was a very nice drive, we both enjoyed it. Wish I could put longer clips on. The state park is about 14 miles east of Roswell. Diesel fuel at most stations in Roswell is $2.799 a gallon. Enjoy and safe travels to you also.
