Travel west on US Hwy 64 to reach the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge, the second highest bridge on the U.S. Highway System. The bridge is a three-span steel continuous-deck-truss structure with a concrete-filled steel-grid deck. It was called the “bridge to nowhere” while it was being built because the funding did not exist to continue the road on the other side. At 650 feet (200 m) above the Rio Grande, it is the fifth highest bridge in the United States. The span is 1,280 feet; two 300-foot-long approach spans with a 600-foot-long main center span. The bridge was dedicated on September 10, 1965 and is a part of U.S. Route 64, a major east-west road.

The drive around Taos Mountain is incredible if you're up for a local road trip. Drive through Taos, to Angel Fire, over to Red River, and back to Taos! It's fun if you're looking for beautiful views and maybe a pub crawl or two!

An Earthship is a type of passive solar house that is made of both natural and upcycled materials such as earth-packed tires, pioneered by architect Michael Reynolds. The Earthship archecture concept began to take shape in the 1970s. The architect Michael Reynolds wanted to create a home that would do three things: first, it would utilize sustainable architecture, and material indigenous to the local area or recycled materials wherever possible; second, the homes would rely on natural energy sources and be independent from the "grid"; thirdly, it would be feasible for a person with no specialized construction skills to build. Eventually, Reynolds's vision was transformed into the common U-shaped earth-filled tire homes seen today. Learn more here - https://taos.org/places/earthship-biotecture/

The therapeutic water on this property originates from beneath the Valles Caldera National Preserve about 17 miles up the mountain. Long ago, ancient sea water was trapped on the mountain and became infused with various minerals over eons of time. This is one of the reasons that the water in the village of Jemez Springs is so special. The hot springs offers four therapeutic mineral water pools of varying temperatures with built-in seating. The pool temperatures are maintained at a comfortable 98-105 degrees Fahrenheit. https://jemezhotsprings.com/
