Albuquerque, New Mexico
The Sandia Mountains are the predominant geographic feature visible in Albuquerque. "Sandia" is Spanish for "watermelon", and is popularly believe to be a reference to the brilliant coloration of the mountains at sunset. The pink is due to large exposures of granodiorite cliffs, and the green is due to large swaths of conifer forests. Its highest point is Sandia Crest, 10,678 feet.
