Sandia Peak is a mountain (elevation 10,678 feet) to the east of Albuquerque
that more or less overlooks the city. It is about a half-hour drive from
town to the summit. The temperature at the top when we were there was
about 30 degrees, while it was about 65 in the city.

Someone should have stepped on these guys' fingers the way Martin
Landau stepped on Cary Grant's fingers on Mt. Rushmore in "North by
Northwest." |

all. |
