Exploring the Albuquerque New Mexico Tram
High above Albuquerque New Mexico you meet a new ecosystem of woodland mountain deer, and high altitude pine trees.
The ride to the top takes about 15 minutes, and if you plan your entry into the Tram you can find your perfect spot for photos.

We really enjoyed the ride, and the changes in the environment as went up.
This historic tram continues to be upgraded and operated each year.

With spectacular views, and different ecosystems to see from the desert to the high mountain Alpine experience.
It provides unique site seeing opportunities and is enjoyable for all. Visitors from around the world and locals alike still enjoy the ride each year in the thousands.

That tram is awesome. I have been on in and had a few drinks at the bar at the top.
thank you for sharing this info @exploretraveler
the height will be quite intriguing and this is a must try for those not scared of heights....
I rode on similar tram. Impressive!
@evgsk where did you go on your tram ride? We like to write the locations down for the future :-)

I live in Albuquerque. The Tram is a pretty great experience. Beautiful at night.
@cathynsons We loved it and would like to experience it again after the first snow.
very scary for me
@ngman100 this one was very slow, and no glass floor so not so scary.
Cool story!
Thank you @hibiscus
MUst be an amazing tram ride, but one I would probably avoid
I have a fear of them after a very scary experience 30 odd years ago
@tattoodjay we also have our stories but keep moving forward. Anyway before long we might get too old, and have to slow down. So we just go for it :-) Thank you for your continued support.
true, I am still working up the courage to ride the little on here between Manhattan and Roosevelt island, as for age it is catching up on me already
Wow! we would really enjoy that one too. I am writing it down for later. Thanks!
cool
and this is why I dont like them, one of the cars that feel I would have been on but some obnoxious people barged there way infront of us, I couldnt be bothered arguing so stepped back fro a minute and was just about to board when it happened
