Northeast New Mexico has much to offer travelers, from outdoor activities to restaurants and accommodations. Skiing, snowboarding and ice fishing can be enjoyed during the winter months, a contrast to the abundant hiking, biking and more that is available in the summer. The town of Raton in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains features a number of historic attractions, such as the Santa Fe National Historic Trail, a trade route that was used in the 1800s. The local Shuler Theater is a historical attraction in Raton, and today features live performances by both residents and visiting troupes. Northeast New Mexico boasts a Las Vegas as well, and though it doesn't enjoy the same reputation as the Nevada gaming haven, it does offer a wealth of outdoor recreation with two National Forests located minutes away. Tucumcari offers a number of interesting attractions, including Mesalands Community College's Dinosaur Museum and Tucumcari Mountain Cheese Factory tours.
