looks like all the campgrounds in carson natl forest are closed on the tuesday after labor day for the season. the ones in santa fe natl forest and some nearby state parks like hyde are open tho.
could always camp outside of the campgrounds in carson nf if necessary.
yeah, those sopapillas are diabolical. dunno how they haven't conquered the entire country by now.
looking forward to the mexican food as i'm not exactly underwhelmed or bored with it here in san diego/socal eating it 3x a week but my palate seems to prefer/really groove to the nm spice profile/style.
