Sumner Lake State Park is 16 miles north of Fort Sumner New Mexico. It's set in a remote area and exists because of the CCC project to build Sumner Dam in 1936 - 37. It is an anomaly of wet and dry in the Chihuahan Desert / Southern High Plains of New Mexico. This video shows the contrast of wet and dry. It was shot from the East Side Trail with the lake to the west and the arid reaches of rolling hills and draws to the east.
