The Albuquerque Metropolitan Arroyo Flood Control Authority has this year’s tumbleweed snowman up. Here are some cool things to know:
- The first one went up in 1995.
- The snowman has increased in size over the years.
- He currently averages about 12-14 feet tall, about 8 feet wide and is made up of only 3 tumbleweeds.
- His decorations are made of recycled materials.
- His hat is the bottom of a 55-gallon drum.
- As always, it’s near the westbound I-40/University exit.
