High in the
Rocky Mountains of New Mexico lies a hidden
gem. From its sparkling headwaters to
its confluence with the mighty Rio Grande, the
Rio Chama carves a valley of scenic beauty
second to none...
Forget your stereotypes of New Mexico. The first
thing you will notice is that the land here is
remarkably green. Water from melting snows
high in the Rocky Mountains swells area creeks,
rivers and two of New Mexico’s largest lakes,
Heron and El Vado. This abundant water feeds
an ancient network of acequias, irrigation canals
first established by native peoples and later
expanded by hardworking Hispanic farmers.
Everywhere you turn, you are greeted by towering
mountain peaks, scenic vistas and deep, colorful
gorges. Been to Yosemite? You’ll be
struck by the similar beauty of our own Brazos
Cliffs. All forms of outdoor recreation are
at their finest here, with every season offering a
new treat and challenge...more
Reunion / Special event on the Horizon??
We are located in the beautiful and diverse Chama
Valley in Northern New Mexico near the Colorado
border. Chama is situated in the southern Rockies
at 7,860 feet eleveation and is what one might
consider a "best kept secret." We hope you and
your membership will consider the potential of
this area as you plan your future reunions or
special events.
Since Chama is a small community, groups of 150 or
less are the most easily accommodated. Your
reunion planner would do the leg work, but we
would provide information and contacts for the
venues you desired plus help smooth the way for
special requirements. Why not make the Chama
Valley your destination for your upcoming
gathering. Download the following file (13MB) for
all pertinent information for your event...
