The High Country Lodge offers a motor court setting with a convenient on-site restaurant. Mountain views, awesome night skies, a relaxed environment and the charm of an Old West town await you. Nearby are hiking trails & local sites such as Kelly Mine, the ghost towns of Kelly & Riley, the VLA (Very Large Area) & the Navajo Alamo Reservation. We share a unique contrast of the old & new between our cowboy heritage & the science of the cosmos.
In town, we have a very active astronomy community which is anxious to share their expertise in night sky viewing & capturing the beauty of our dark skies. The Telescope Lyceum & astronomy presentations are most popular.
