...What Tent Rocks was all about - never made it in there while I lived in NM. Cool stuff.

Yeah, a lot of locals don't seem to know about it but it is within an hour of ABQ and Santa Fe. Doing both full trails was only about 4 miles but I think it took me an hour to get through the 3/4 mile of canyon I took so many pics.

	Voted 10/10	I have been to New Mexico, is this area more in the south? Well, i prefer the colder conditions of the mountains. Whenever we went to a desert Colorado/New Mexico i suffered a great deal from the heat. My family enjoy escaping from Virginia which is so Hot! During the winter we have no snow! One day i might go there, looks great, Wiktoria

	Voted 10/10	I was in ABQ for a week and Santa Fe for like a day. Strange that we did not go there...
