A few miles west of Carrizozo is the BLM Valley of Fires campground. 30 amp with water, nice shower/ restroom and dump station. It is built right on the edge of the lava flow with a great nature trail out into the lava field.
Another great BLM site north of Alamogordo is the Three Rivers Petroglyph Site. You hike a trail between lava boulders covered with petroglyphs--thousands of them! One of the ore interesting sites I have visited in New Mexico. The site also has a small number of RV sites with electricity (formerly free, but not sure now).
