Silver City

Population: 10,000
|
|

Silver City, tucked into the southern foothills of the Pinos Altos
Mountains at 6000 feet in elevation, is located at a climate
transition zone, where the lower elevation intense deserts of
southwestern New Mexico give way to the higher elevation, cool alpine
climes of the Gila National Forest. Spreading out to the north of
town are the Mogollan Mountains, once a hotbed for silver mining and
the inspiration for the founding of Silver City in the 19th century.
Silver City still retains much of its former mining town feel with
Victorian style facaded storefronts and quaint street systems. |

Socorro, one of the oldest towns in New Mexico, is located at the
junctions of I-25 and NM Highway 60 west and is often bypassed by
hurried travelers as a mere pit stop as they speed along I-25 between
Albuquerque and Las Cruces. Socorro, however, is within a short drive
of some excellent recreational opportunities and interesting
attractions that are sure to please most outdoor oriented visitors. |
