Red River Park Live Cam

The Red River area in New Mexico has a long and fascinating history, spanning thousands of years. The region was originally inhabited by various indigenous tribes, including the Jicarilla Apache, the Pueblo peoples, and the Ute. These tribes relied on the river for fishing, hunting, and transportation, and their cultures were deeply intertwined with the natural environment.

In the 18th century, Spanish explorers arrived in the region and began to establish settlements and trade relationships with the native peoples. The town of Taos, located near the Red River, was founded in 1710 and became an important center of commerce and culture.
