Sandia Mountain

16 June 2026

Out next tourist destination was to take the tramway up Sandia mountain and walk around a bit on up there...  The hut on the one peak is the 3rd one built by the Civilian Conservation Corp, the first two wooden structures having been destroyed by strong winds and fire.
