It is a popular fishing and camping destination, and is surrounded by the Lincoln National Forest. Because of the high altitude, the water is cold year-round and teeming with rainbow trout. The area boasts fishing and camping opportunities with great hiking trails and streams.

Bonito Lake is an alpine reservoir located high in the Sierra Blanca mountains northwest of Ruidoso, New Mexico. It is a popular fishing and camping destination, and although it is surrounded by the Lincoln National Forest, it is not a part of the national forest.
