The Salt Missions Trail
This Day Trip by car starts at the junction of I-40 and Hwy 337 in Tijeras and goes southeast through the Manzano Mountains to Mountainair through tiny communities like Manzano, Tajique, Chilili, Escobosa, and Yrisarri. "Mountainair is the starting point for the places that gave this byway its name - the ruins of Abo (9 miles west on US 60), Quarai (8 miles north on NM 55), and Gran Quivira (25 miles south on NM 55) pueblos (Abo 505-847-2400; Quarai 505-847-2290; Gran Quivira 505-847-2770). They are units of the Salinas Pueblos Missions National Monument, and a visitors' center in Mountainair (505-847-2585; open 8:00-5:00) provides a video and museum which interpret them".
