Film Trivia:
The scenes for Longmire's cabin were filmed in the Valles Caldera in the Jemez Mountains of New Mexico.
Have you visited the Caldera? It is amazing! The caldera is a 14 mile wide volcanic crater. It is now a national preserve. Several Westerns including The Missing and Lone Ranger have used this location.
