Board: State: New Mexico
An Unusual Tourist is now planted very close to I-25 in the park in San Antonio. Should be a quick find and a chance to stretch your legs on a long trip. You can stop at the Owl or the Buckhorn for a green chile cheeseburger if you are there at the r...

This box doesn't get much action and several people have had trouble finding it so I moved it (sad, since I loved where it was). But this new spot is a nice little easy stroll through the cottonwoods so check out the new clues and I hope it gets some m...

I'll be visiting Santa Fe, next month with my cousins, aunts, and mom. I'm hoping to get out letterboxing. Is March a good time to box? Is there any thing I should know about boxing in NM? Thanks and I can't wait to add another state to my list!

March can be wonderful or miserable--miserable if the big winds decide to blow. Other days you'll have a jacket on in the morning and be down to shorts and tee-shirt in the afternoon. Cacti are a problem--particularly if you back into a cholla. It ha...

Yes, the weather in March can be a snowstorm or it can be warm or it can be windy - or maybe even all three in one day! There are a number of boxes up on Hyde Park Road, but that area will probably still be snowed in. Lots of other boxes in town or...

Albuquerque Museum has an exhibit until April dealing with Block Printing in New Mexico--The Art of the Curved Line. It has some wonderful Gustav Baumann prints and the wood blocks and some contemporary work. It did not show people at work creating t...

We had planned to go see this exhibit a few weeks ago, but it turned out that the museum was closed on that day- a Monday. We will try to get down another time before April. Thanks for the heads up and your recommendation. We are fans of Baumann. L...

Hi I'm new here so not sure if this is where I should post directions to finding my boxes. I planted one in 2006 in Roswell, NM. I hope someone nearby can find it! I was never ever contacted. I believe a long time ago I did post on a letterboxing si...

Hi wolfdreamer, For people to look for your box, you will need to post an official clue. You do that by scrolling on the word LETTERBOX at the top of this website on the menu bar. Once you do that, you will see several choices, one of which is ADD LET...

I'm planning a letterboxing trip through eastern NM (hopefully sometime this fall). I have many plants planned. The stamps are almost all carved and I'm finally ready to start placing everything into containers, but I have no idea what containers to us...

Depends on what part of New Mexico. In the southern parts, like in southern Arizona, the wings on locknlocks will fail fall off due to extreme dry heat. Peanuts butter jars seem to hold p well

Just wanted to let everyone know that many letterboxes from our last 2 Spooktacular events have been relocated and can now be found in a "Halloween Park" near Lamy, NM, which is about 15 miles south of Santa Fe. The boxes which have been relocated are:...

Any awesome dog parks in the Santa Fe area? Or dog-friendly body of water?
by ArnoldZiffelProfileContactLogbookNote
Board: State: New Mexico
This is New Mexico, so water is pretty scarce. There is a great dog park on the west side of town off of highway 599 near the animal shelter at 100 Caja Del Río Rd. It is several acres and fully fenced. The Frank Ortiz dog park is popular on the north...

I thought that might be the case with the water but it never hurts to ask :) Thanks for the park suggestions, we'll probably end up at the fenced in one. We'll be there in April but unfortunately it's just for a quick day so we likely won't have time f...

There is a series of two (one might be missing) boxes out by the animal shelter that you could find if you have time. https://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.html?boxId=87907 Have a good trip!

Hi friends, I'll be in Santa fe for a day or so next week, and would love suggestions on a fun lunch place. I'm not quite sure what all I'll be doing yet, but am hoping to buy a piece of turquoise if I can. And maybe get a box or two. I'll be cam...

Reach out to Lionsmane. He lives in Santa Fe and has come to multiple Texas events. He's really nice and probably could provide a great recommendation.

The best place to buy turquoise jewelry. in my opinion, is on the plaza at the Palace of the Governors. Native American vendors have their wares spread out under the portal of the Palace. There are a few boxes downtown within walking distance from th...

Here is a link to some maps that might help you decided on boxes. Like ArnoldZiffel said the ones along Hyde Park Road are unavailable due to forest closure. Santa Fe Area Maps and Lists As for lunch spots, these are some of my favorite places in Santa...

Okay, that sounds great! Thursday will be the best time to meet for lunch. I'll be coming from Carson NF, so let me know when and where to meet you. That would be easiest. Thanks for all the suggestions. :)

I would enjoy meeting with you on Sunday or Monday sometime. Maybe in a coffee shop? What part of town are you staying in? Send me a message through AQ.

I did go look for it in the last year, but it is not there. I live an hour away. If you want to replant it, I can do that for you.
