Tijeras Canyon: This pass between the Sandia and Manzano Mountains has been a natural route for travel between eastern New Mexico and The Rio Grande Valley since prehistoric times.  Known as Cañon de Carnué in the Spanish colonial period, it takes its present name from the village of Tijeras, Spanish for "scissors".
