I haven't been there in twenty years so no specific places to recommend, but the Tramway is phenomenal.

There are some amazing drives south. Leave early for Socorro, hit route 60 to Quemado, north on 36 to 117 then I 40 or rural roads back.

5 and 1/2 hours total. You'll drive by the VLA. Amazing roads and country. Back for lunch.

BTW, the 603 is also a great drive but it is dusty, as in dirt. I'd do all the roads I mentioned again tomorrow.
