Sandia Mountains New Mexico Peak Cruise

Took this series of video clips late morning on February 18th 2008. Starts on old Route 66 in Tijeras Canyon on up to the observation platform at the top. Half way up I stopped for a few minutes at the Sandia Ski area. That is the steps you see me walking up. There was more snow towards the top then I expected but it was still a beautiful day.

Man....I didn't get to Albuquerque for the first time until very late 1985. I'd give my left you know what to have seen Albuquerque and the Sandias back in 1963. Albuquerque was so much smaller back then and they still had Big Horn at the top of the mountain I've read. I've been to Sandia Man cave many times. Always makes me reflect on what life would of been like for that dude 10,000 years ago looking out over the canyon.

Beautiful...the Snow Covered Sandia Mountains (Fingerprints of Our Lord Jesus) and his Awesome Creation....All Creation and Nature Glorifies Our Lord Jesus. Thanks again for sharing. Reminds me when I used to take this Drive up to the Crest the top of the Sandia's with a girlfriend when I lived in Albuquerque back in the year of 1992. All I have to say for anyyone who has never visited New Mexico you gotta go see it in person.

God Bless

Peace and Happiness

I've been going up that mountain since 1963. My mother during high school volunteered with the philanthropist who explored Sandia Man Cave. Nice video and you can see fairly well through the haze - looks cold on top. I used to cross country on the north trail.
