If conditions are right: El Paso's Franklin Mountains in March

Temperatures and precipitation have to be right at certain times of the year, but if they are, March is glorious in El Paso's Franklin Mountains.  The mountainsides are yellow with poppies!  The Franklins--and Franklin Mountain State Park--are a mecca for mountain biking and hiking.  There are also two museums on the eastern edge of the mountains:  El Paso's Museum of Archaeology and the Border Patrol Museum.  Check them out!
