Hey Michael,

That is a bummer! We are going to be in ALBQ memorial day weekend (May 
24-27th) for a ballooning competition. We were hoping to get some caches. I 
havent scoped them out real well yet, but, it appears that there are a few 
near the Rio Grande River that we were hoping to go for. The ones on the 
east side of ALBQ appear to be fairly mountainous and tough to get to. We 
are probably going to be limited to the easier to get to caches while over 
there. Don't expect to be able to do any serious hiking. Our afternoons will 
be mostly free for caching though. So, we will see if we can get to some of 
them. Again, I havent scoped any out yet. But, was hoping to get the ones 
down in the valley. By the looks of the geocaching.com map for NM, they look 
to be along a north/south line right around the Rio Grande river area.  ?  
They appear to be the ones you are refering to. Will be back over there 
again in late June for a competition and should be able to do some hikig on 
that trip and maybe get into some of the Sandia Mnt caches.
