I'm in the 5454 ft lowlands on the west side of Albuquerque past the Rio Grande.
Flying out of the airport is a bit bumpy from the thermals coming off the city.
Hard Rock Miners (nor minors) might want join in on a Chimney Effect Power-Plant venture?
Years ago Gold was mined extensively on the east side of the mountains.
A couple of years ago the grand kids and their dad hiked the trail (La Luz)
to the crest,(about five hours) figuring they would ride theTram down, but they had their
dog with them (no dogs allowed) thus couldn't ride it. It was dark when they got back down.
The dog was refreshed, they were beat.
