    Tips

    September 15, 2023

    At an elevation of 10,678 feet, Sandia Crest is the highest in the Sandia Mountains. What sets this mountain range apart is there's no true summit; instead, it features a ridge line. During sunset, the vibrant colors in the sky explain why this area earned its name, which means "watermelon" in Spanish.
