New Mexicans know that our home state is peppered with some incredible hidden gems. This applies not only to hole-in-the-wall restaurants but also to our enchanting landscapes. Deserts, forests, lakes, and mountainsides all make for a dreamy atmosphere.

One of our favorite locations is southern New Mexico's Sierra Blanca Mountains.

On their channel, you'll find a collection of videos in the Rocky Mountains, hot springs, and foreign locations, interspersed between wedding videos. Their video featuring the Sierra Blanca Mountains in Ruidoso is just over five minutes long and it is pure bliss.
