On day 3 of our Cloudcroft excursion after finishing our hike we stopped for a short walk along the Nelson overlook Trail. This trail starts along the Sun Spot Highway at a marked Trail Head. At the end of this .25 mile trail is a viewpoint overlooking the Tularosa Basin and White Sands. The San Andres Mountains west of the Tularosa Basin were also visible. The views along the Rim Trail were equally as good. There is a short .1 mile route from this trail to the Rim Trail below.
