I live in the shadow of these striking mountains. But don't be fooled. They are very small and not really mountains. They are at the tail of the Rocky Mountains deep southwest United States, almost in Mexico.
To the north east a few miles is the White Sand Missile range and Trinity Site, where the first Nuclear bomb was tested.
At its peak it is 8,990 Feet. Literally 10 miles from the north side to the south. You can drive from the front to the back in 10-15 minutes easy.
