I can appreciate why one may think they are the most beautiful mountains they have seen in NM, the States, or anywhere. They certainly are unique. Rising from the desert valley with those sharp pinacle granite peaks, the Organ Mountains certainly are a very spectacular range to look at. I coudn't keep my eyes off of them when I was in Las Cruces. Every time they came into view I would take an extra second to stop and stare.

I like the Sandías, although every mountain range in NM probably has its admirers.

Sierra Blanca is probably my single favorite. Sandias are beautiful, but so are the Organs. Also the Sacramentos in Alamogordo, and the Chukas on the Navajo Reservation are beautiful as well.

Here is a list of mountain ranges in New Mexico. Which is the most beautiful?

When I've seen them all, at all times of year, from all perspectives, and in all kinds of weather, I'll let you know.

They are pretty, but I like mountains that have more green on them. Such as the sacramento mountains.
