Date: 2017-07-19 02:28 pm (UTC)If you can make plans, the tours were the first Saturday of April and October, and they start at like 7am leaving Alamogordo. It's around a 3-4 hour drive to the site in a convoy escorted by military police. It's all free, but you pass through a checkpoint entering the base, so everyone in the car has to produce ID and registration (and maybe insurance). But if you Google for Trinity Site Tour and look for a page for White Sands Missile Range, you can get full info. And if you manage to attend, I can point you to the safe and best places to eat in Alamogordo, or more specifically, a few places to avoid: my wife is an astronomer and a visiting crew ate at one particular place and two of them came down with food poisoning. There's also some very pretty hikes in the area. I have lots of photos in the area at my photography web site, WayneWestPhotography.com.
