These mountains also boast an archaeological continuum of human activities from the end of the last Ice Age through the present. As you travel north you’ll see the Sandia Mountains and Cibola National Forest, a scenic and recreational paradise full of outdoor activities including bicycling, hiking, horseback riding, climbing and skiing. This beautiful area is home to a diverse collection of animals and plants, and birdwatchers come from around the world to witness the hawk and eagle migrations. Just outside of Sandia Park, along highway 536, the road to Sandia Crest, you’ll find the Tinkertown Museum; a collection of one man’s life work that includes a handcarved animated miniature western town and a three-ring circus. Follow the Byway, or “Crest Road”, through the beautiful Cibola National Forest. During the drive you’ll see incredible vistas and pass through five different life zones. Sandia Crest Sandia Crest is the “High Point on the Turquoise Trail”. The magnificent summit of the Sandia Mountain has an elevation of 10,678’. The view from the observation deck is awe- inspiring. Information and refreshments are available. Venture into the Sandia Mountain Wilderness to hike through aspen glades and across flowering meadows on a well-marked trail system. From mid November through March three species of Rosy Finch call Sandia Crest home, making the area an ideal destination for bird-watchers. For an exciting ride up or down the mountain to Albuquerque, take the Sandia Peak Tramway, the longest jig-back tram in the world. The wilderness area does not allow overnight camping, but private campgrounds and other lodging is available. The full-service Sandia Peak Ski Area & Chairlift Ride provides access to the mountain and offers year-round recreation. Call for information: (505) 242- 9052. Ride up for a scenic view or take your mountain bike and explore 15 miles of trails. Golden Golden appeared suddenly in 1839 as the New Placers gold-mining town called El Real de San Francisco de Paola. When some years later the US post office arrived, there were already other San Franciscos, and so they called this one Golden. Madrid Madrid’s rich history, dating from the mid 1800’s, has taken it from the discovery of coal, to a mining town, to today’s distinctive artist’s community. Because of the unique geology of the area, a phenomenon found in only two other mines in the world, hard and soft coal were mined here with shafts as deep as 2500’. The area was booming in its heyday supplying coal for the Santa Fe Railroad, local consumers and the US Government. The company town became famous for its Fourth of July parade, lighted Christmas displays and minor league baseball games in the first lighted stadium in the west. When coal use declined the town fell silent. It became a ghost town. In the early 1970’s, artists and craftspeople arrived. They converted old company stores and houses into quality shops and galleries and services. Madrid has an original tavern & soda fountain, the Old Coal Mine Museum and in the summer there are festivals and concerts at the Historic ballpark. The Fourth of July parade and Christmas celebrations (weekends in December) have been revived by Madrid’s current residents. Cerrillos The area turquoise and lead deposits were critical to the jewelry and pottery making of the prehistoric Indians and these mines influenced Spanish settlement. The Cerrillos mining district from 900ad is one of the oldest and most marked of the Old Spanish Mineral Developments in the Southwest. In fact, turquoise mined here found its way to the crown jewels of Spain. Cerrillos was full of hearty miners who extracted gold, silver, lead, zinc and turquoise from area mines at its peak in the 1880’s. The miners supported the town’s 21 saloons and four hotels. While it was once seriously considered for the capitol of New Mexico, today Cerrillos, with its dirt streets, is a picturesque reminder of the Old West. There are several shops, galleries and the Cerrillos Turquoise Mining Museum and Petting Zoo, plus hiking, biking and horse trails. The town has been the setting for several motion pictures. Saint Joseph’s church has mass every Sunday.(505) 471-1562 Cerrillos Hills State Park Located north of Cerrillos village, Cerrillos Hills State Park is a day-use park with five miles of trails for hikers, mountain bikers and horseback riding offering spectacular views of northern New Mexico as well as safe access to dozens of pre-1900 mines.
