My wife and I are traveling to Las Cruces in early October. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a place in town or maybe in a nearby town where we could rent a telescope?

Camera shops often carry telescopes as well.

This may or may not appeal to you, but you can rent telescope time from this place near Ruidoso:

New Mexico Skies: Home

Their equipment is pretty awesome - at least it seems that way to us.

Looks as tho' they've gone global now also:
