Heart of the Four Corners, Bloomfield New Mexico

The Community - Bloomfield, NM

Bloomfield, also known as the 'Heart of the Four Corners,' is located in the high desert of Northwest New Mexico. It lies leisurely along the banks of the San Juan River. To the North, the majestic San Juan Mountains create a spectacular backdrop for our lush river valley. To the South and West, a person can find the beauty of the desert landscape once inhabited by the Anasazi Indians, known as the "Ancient Ones." A few miles to the East, a sportsman's paradise unfolds for hunting, fishing, and boating enthusiasts.

Bloomfield is situated amid Native American tribal lands- The Navajo, the Jicarilla Apache, the Southern Ute and the Ute Mountain reservations are among those reservations closest to the town of Bloomfield. Its location is in the middle of an area rich in prehistoric history. The Bisti Wilderness Area has long attracted men of science looking for answers to our past. It's also a must visit for shutterbugs in search of that one scene to photograph that will be etched in the soul of mankind for eternity. Visitors and residents alike are astounded by the numerous attractions, historic sites, beautiful mountains, and scenic desert vistas that are so easy to access. You may no longer hear the old sounds of gunfights and saloon brawls, but occasionally you may witness an argument about who makes the best chili salsa.

Explore Bloomfield here.
