What Visitors Say
“A magical place to unplug and just breathe.”
“The sunsets alone are worth the trip.”
“Music, camping, and nature all in one incredible spot.”
Exploring off-grid land often means witnessing raw, unscripted moments of nature. While observing free range cattle, a dark shape on the ground initially raised concern—potentially a calf in distress.
In environments like Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center, experiences like this are part of the reality of off grid living—where human presence blends with natural ecosystems rather than controlling them.
🐄 Observing Before Acting
Approaching carefully revealed a calm but protective herd. The mother cow remained alert, signaling the need to stop and observe instead of intervene.
Observations included:
The herd maintained calm awareness
Protective maternal behavior was present
Minimal movement near the calves
Moments later, the situation clarified—two healthy newborn calves resting close to their mother, exactly as nature intended.
⚠️ Why Respecting Distance Matters
In off-grid and rural environments, understanding animal behavior is essential.
Best practices for safety and respect:
Maintain a safe distance from livestock
Avoid sudden movements or direct approach
Recognize protective instincts as natural behavior
Allow nature to resolve situations independently
This moment reinforced a core principle of ranch life and desert living—not everything requires human intervention.
🌄 The Reality of Off-Grid Living
Life at Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center offers authentic experiences shaped by nature.
This includes:
Direct interaction with natural ecosystems
Real-time learning through observation
Respect for wildlife and livestock balance

🌵 Final Thought
True awareness comes from knowing when to step forward—and when to step back.

Welcome to Plateau Hame de Colquhoun ( Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center)
If you’ve ever felt like most campgrounds are either too crowded or too isolating, you’re not alone.
Some places pack you in like a parking lot. Others leave you completely on your own with no sense of connection. Plateau Hame de Colquhoun was created to offer something different in central New Mexico, just south of Belen:
A place where you choose your experience.
You can enjoy total privacy under vast desert skies — or pull up a chair by the firepit, watch an outdoor movie at golden hour, and listen to live desert music with fellow travelers.
A Different Kind of New Mexico Camping Experience
Camping here isn’t just about a site to park or pitch a tent. It’s about atmosphere, freedom, and options.
Quiet desert views
Space to breathe
No pressure to socialize
Opportunities to connect when you want to
A safe place to simply be yourself
This balance is what makes Plateau Hame de Colquhoun stand apart from typical RV parks and crowded campgrounds.

Many guests arrive just to camp — and leave inspired by what they learned around the fire.
Outdoor Movies at Golden Hour
As the sun drops behind the desert horizon, the atmosphere changes.
Chairs come out. The fire is lit. A movie plays under the open sky.
Guests are always welcome to join… or enjoy the quiet from their own site. There is never an expectation — only an invitation.
Music in the Desert
One of the most unique parts of staying here is Music in the Desert, hosted by Advocatus Diaboli of Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band.
Live original music, desert air, firelight, and a small gathering of campers creates an experience you simply won’t find at a typical campground.
It’s not a concert. It’s not a party. It’s an atmosphere.
