This cache has been archived.

Explorer99: I had hoped it wouldn't come to this but I just can't maintain this series of caches any longer. It has been a great 9 year run but it's time to archive this group. Thanks to all the cachers who visited them.

Geocache Description:

New Mexico is home to 25 magnificent scenic byways, totaling over 2,900 miles across a diverse landscape. The U.S. Secretary of Transportation recognizes these designated roads based on one or more intrinsic qualities — archaeological, cultural, historic, natural, recreational, or scenic.

This is a desert environment so please be careful of the flora and fauna that live here and the trash people leave along the road.


Be sure to drive the Corrales Road Scenic Byway with your windows rolled down, or better yet, walk. Listen to the sounds of birds in the bosque and water in the acequia. Breathe in the earthy smells of livestock and tilled earth, and roasting green chile in the fall. Revel in the lush greenness of the best remaining example of the middle Rio Grande cottonwood forest. Experience an oasis of rural life in the middle of the busy metropolitan Albuquerque area.
