Zuni Mountains
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Zuni Mountains are a mountain range in northwestern New Mexico. They are located partly in the Cibola National Forest. The highest point is Lookout Mountain, at 9,128 feet. The range is known for its fossils, and their importance to the Navajo. The range is one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world. Millions of years ago the mountains were well over 20,000 feet high, as evidenced by the amount of Mesozoic rock in the mountains.
