Tesuque, New Mexico: Camel Rock

New Mexico has all sorts of interesting rock formations, and this is one of the most famous. Camel Rock, well, looks like a camel, particularly when viewed from the side.

But there's a bit of a problem with this. Earlier in 2017, the camel lost its mouth. In other words, the part of the rock that formed the bottom of the "mouth" fell away. It still looks like a camel, but it's not like it used to be. Now comes the debate on whether to fix it.

The road that goes north out of Santa Fe (Route 84/285) hosts the attraction. It's across the street from the Camel Rock Casino, and only takes seconds to visit. It is interesting to consider what it may look like in future visits.
