We are in the same boat, trying to come from Raleigh NC into Albequrque. We
always go that route, love it, alot less hassel than the Denver area, IMO.
We are going to wait until the winter for airfare, Never has been a problem
in the past.However if some folks are going to try and use airmiles, they
might want to go ahead and book. Worst that happens is someone has to wait
for an hour or so at the airport. For a great experience in tours from ABQ
gotta give Blue Sky Adventures a look. Run by scouters, GREAT experiences
when we have used them. They have a web site which describes several
different levels of tours, or you can come up with your own. (
