Canyon Madness Ranch Opens April In New Mexico: Architectural Gem Offers Adventures In The Tranquility Of The Great Outdoors

It’s hard to predict what travel in 2021 will look like, but as people start to feel more confident to roam, places offering space and privacy to social distance in comfort with the freedom to explore may be high on travelers’ lists.

Far removed from big city lights, Canyon Madness Ranch has announced the launch of a luxury ranch set on 14,000 acres of outdoor adventure paradise in northeastern New Mexico.

Opening to guests for the first time in April 2021, the ranch provides equestrian pursuits, firearm-related sports, and an incredible range of wilderness activities, from archery to hiking to river kayaking and more. An intimate property welcoming just 16 guests, Canyon Madness Ranch’s extensive land holdings encompass Enciero Canyon, a box-canyon with seas of red clay interrupted by giant 20-foot deep crevices.

Mixing the high excitement of adventurous outdoor recreations with the comfort of luxury accommodations and stunning, uninterrupted, and pristine natural beauty, Canyon Madness Ranch is a playground for all. 

Canyon Madness Ranch is offering an opening offer of an all-inclusive price of $3,500USD per person per week (7 nights/6 full days), inclusive of lodging, activities/excursions, food, and beverage (wine, beer & sake).  Bookings for three to five nights are charged at $700USD per night.

Cage Diving With Sea Monsters

Looking for a safe, unique vacation the entire family will enjoy?

How about a virtual trip to a remote island where you can visit the most advanced state-of-the-art aquarium complexes ever conceived, holding the most terrifying prehistoric sharks and sea monsters that ever lived?

Welcome to SeaMonsterCove.com. The creative force that recruited an international team of 3D animators, 2D artists, engineers, actors, producers and an ancient hark museum curator is Steve Alten, author of the NY Times bestselling “MEG” series, the source material for the 2018 summer blockbuster “The MEG,” starring Jason Statham.  

Sea Monster Cove holds six marine habitats that date back to different eras in our history, while the O-Quarium is home to our star attraction, Snowflake.”

At SeaMonsterCove.com, the special effects are motion picture-worthy, and the wildlife doesn’t just swim around in benign circles; in fact, they seem quite aware that you are watching them, and some of them clearly do not like it, especially when you enter their domain to do a little “cage diving.” In each of these heart-pounding, 360-degree experiences, the user controls the viewing angle, attempting to track the attacks as they happen (there are day and night versions available). The action is nonstop and the creatures so real that it is easy to lose yourself in a two-hour reprieve from reality.
