Cimarron Canyon State Park is a New Mexico State Park located three miles east of Eagle Nest, New Mexico in the Colin Neblett Wildlife Area. The park is popular for trout fishing in the Cimarron River and its tributaries, Clear Creek and Tolby Creek.[1]. The park also has numerous trails, which are used for hiking in the summer and cross country skiing in the winter.
The park extends for eight miles along the Cimarron Canyon between Tolby Creek and Ute Park. The Palisades Sill forms spectacular cliffs above the Cimarron River here.
