Hyde Memorial State Park in Sante Fe, New Mexico was the perfect mountain spot to view Sante Fe from a new perspective.
Drove to the top to take photos overlooking Sante Fe. If I squinted, I could see Albuquerque on a hazeless day. The fall colors were impeccable.
It wasn’t as dramatic as Mesa Verde National Park. But it was beautiful, just the same.
I took photos the greens of the Aspen trees shifting to orange and yellow and red. The illumination of the road was spellbinding.
