Welcome to Tucumcari. Recently we experienced the edge of a full-blown blizzard. A nearby town got 33 inches of snow in a day!

In the realm where earth meets sky, "Route 66 Radiance" transforms ordinary into extraordinary. Tucumcari Mountain, a celestial guardian with hues of blue, purple, and fire, invites you into a sunset’s embrace. Enter this dimension of dream and twilight. #Route66Radiance #Tucumcari #SunsetMagic

Tucumcari Mountain overshadows Route 66 in New Mexico and is the name sake of one of the Crown Jewels of Route 66, Tucumcari. #tucumcari, #Route66, #Newmexico, #sunsetphotography
