Truth or Consequences [1] -- be prepared for more than the usual puffery from an "official" page), locally called T or C and formerly known as Hot Springs, is a town in New Mexico in the United States of America. It gets its curious name from a 1950s-vintage television show that offered to film an episode in some little town far from Hollywood, if that town would change its name to match the show's. Hot Springs, New Mexico needed an economic boost, agreed to the deal, and has gained notoriety and consequently tourist business as a result.

Get in

T or C is located along Interstate highway 25 between Albuquerque and Las Cruces. There is no nearby air service; the Albuquerque airport, which is served by most United States airlines and is a major hub for Southwest Airlines, is about 150 miles north, and the airport at El Paso, Texas a similar distance south.

Do

• Water sports, remarkably enough. T or C is on the Rio Grande between Elephant Butte Reservoir and Caballo Lake, two artificial lakes built mainly for flood control and water management, which however offer opportunities for fishing and small boating. (Note that there are frequent weather advisories for boaters on these lakes resulting from high winds; take these advisories seriously, as fatal accidents involving overturned and unmanageable sailboats are distressingly common here.)
• Check out the local hot springs (this is also the former name of T or C). The Artesian Bath House is a good one. All of the hot springs are concentrated in the old part of town.

• The Charles Motel and Spa, 601 Broadway, 800-317-4518 [2], claims to be "an affordable hot springs spa" with massage therapy, wraps, etc., in addition to rooms and (hot!) spring baths.

Get out

• Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge is about 60 miles north; see Socorro article for details.
