San Antonio Hot Springs
October is a great time to be in the Jemez. Whether your visit is camping for the weekend or a day trip, there is much to do in the Jemez Mountains.
With the cooler weather, the hot springs feel that much better. Take an Autumn hike or drive up to the San Antonio Hot Springs and revive your being with a soak in the 106 degree water. The views are an added bonus. (more…)

An Empty and Inviting San Antonio Campground
Thanks to all, from all of us here at Amanda’s. We appreciate your patronage during what has been our most challenging summer. The Las Conchas Fire, the largest in New Mexico State history, seems like a dream (a very bad one). In spite of the devastation, the recreational areas of the Jemez remain untouched and beautiful. We are grateful for that but are mindful of those who lost so much. Our thoughts and prayers go out to those who have suffered. (more…)

28 inch Brown Taken From the Rio Cebolla Oct 2010
This Saturday, September 24th, is free fishing day in the State of New Mexico. This fishing opportunity is designated twice a year by the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish.
No fishing license is required by any angler this Saturday to fish any public water in the State of New Mexico. All other rules and regulations apply.
We would hope that you take this opportunity to visit the beautiful Jemez Mountains and bring a friend that might not otherwise want to fish, because of cost.

Lexi Loo and a Nice Rainbow
The Kid’s Pond at the Seven Springs hatchery is a wonderful place to take your kids to experience a successful day fishing. To access this fishery, drive approximately three miles past Fenton Lake on Hwy 126 and turn right onto FR314. After a short distance you will see the parking lot for the Kid’s Pond. There is no charge to park or fish. Fishing is restricted to children eleven years old and younger. There is a nice bathroom facility and the pond is open for fishing daily from 8:00am till 5:00pm. Catching fish at the Kid’s Pond is not a “sure thing” but it’s pretty close. Normal bag limits apply to the kids at the pond…five fish per day. Right now, fishing has been fabulous for Rainbows to 16 inches and the occasional Brown up to 20 inches.

With the recent rains, the forest is beautiful. It is green and wildflowers are appearing. Your sense of sight and of smell will be rewarded. (more…)
