Ruidoso area is the green spot of south central New Mexico. It is an island of pines rising high above the desert, a verdant display of grandeur stretching ninety miles in the southern Rocky Mountains. The region includes Ruidoso, Mescalero Apache Reservation, Cloudcroft, Lincoln and a collection of other mountain communities each with its own charm and personality. The most dominant landmark is Sierra Blanca Peak which towers above the region: 12,003 feet above sea level. Sierra Blanca Peak is part of a mountain chain called the Sacramentos. Lincoln is one of the many points of interest along the Billy the Kid National Scenic Byway. Travel this byway and experience both the breathtaking beauty and volatile history of New Mexico. Lincoln is a town made famous by one of the most violent periods in New Mexico history. Today's visitors can see the Old Lincoln County Courthouse with museum exhibitions that recount the details of the Lincoln County War and the historic use of the "House" as store, residence, Masonic Lodge, courthouse and jail. Walk in the footsteps of Billy the Kid, Pat Garrett and other famous and infamous characters of the Wild West. Trace the events of 1878 through the Courthouse and the Tunstall Store, with their preserved 19th-century atmosphere. The Tunstall Store contains displays of the original 19th-century merchandise in the original shelving and cases. OaWhite Oaks, the mining boomtown in the 1880s. Several landmark buildings still stand. White Oaks is now a ghost town and a tourist attraction. Visit the White Oaks Schoolhouse Museum, built in 1895. It now hosts family reunions, art tours and an extensive collection of mining and pioneer memorabilia. Smokey Bear In 1950 a forest fire swept through the Capitan Mountains. Clinging to a charred tree, a small black bear was found by a crew of firefighters. The cub was taken to the home of a local rancher and became an international symbol of forest fire prevention.
