This cache has been archived.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.


The High Road to Taos Scenic Byway takes the traveler through an authentic remnant of Old Spain, still evident in the religion, architecture, topography, history, and people along the route. To begin this miraculous journey, take U.S.285/84 north from Santa Fe and turn east on N.M.503 to the Pueblo of Nambe. Occupied since about 1300, this Tewa pueblo was first described by Castano de Sosa in 1591 as a square structure, two stories high with a central plaza.
