Oliver Lee Memorial SP New Mexico

Oliver Lee was a rancher near Alamogordo in the 1800s. He was accused of murder, ran away, turned himself in, was acquitted, and became a U.S. senator. This park is located in a small section of his old ranch. We are going to hike up 'Dog Canyon' tomorrow. That is the canyon behind the MP in the pic. We will be here for 3 days.
