Thanks uggabugga, we didn't see any large wildlife on that trip...

The Quarai ruins is worth the visit.

Back in the 70's, my folks would occasionally take us on a Sunday picnic trip from LL around to Abo, Gran Quivira, and Quarai. Good stuff!

Abiquiu Lake - located in northern New Mexico, 61 miles north of Santa Fe on Highway 84 at the intersection of Highway 96. From Espanola, 30 miles west on US 84, 2 miles south on NM 96. More info: Corps Lakes Gateway: New Mexico - Abiquiu Lake

We took these pictures when we were out there in July 2007:

Sandia Mountain and Sandia Peak, various pictures I took at various times. It is my favorite
probably because I see it every day, I can see it from inside my house, I can drive to it easily,
it can be very inexpensive to enjoy, and it is very convenient...

Sierra Blanca is nice and all, but it's not very high. Sandia is overrated..

Truchas Peak wins this by a long shot.
