  1. I lived in northern NM for five years, up until 2011. I've seen weird shit and heard (ears) plenty more. But no skinwalkers. But I talked with the local Taos Pueblo Indians - when they were in a talkative move towards a white man. Usually they speak Tewa to one another on the bus. But sometimes... sometimes they had interesting tales to tell. I had a couple Bigfoot experiences in the middle of the night where I lived - essentially across the street from the high school. They will tell you the skinwalkers are real, but it's a phenomenon that occurs almost exclusively in Diné (Navajo) lands. And those mostly cling around the western border with Arizona, where Drunkenness is King and Despair is its handmaiden. I am NOT saying skinwalkers are a drunken delusion, although that must happen sometimes. Maybe it scares them sober, I don't know. "Skinwalker Alley" is along NM 666, which runs north from Gallup to the Four Corners and then (under a different numbering system) into Colorado and Utah. A part of it in NM has been renamed 491. I appreciate honest skepticism, but if you are a long-haul trucker and you see something 7 feet tall that jumps up out of ditch as you pass that looks like a biped wolf or coyote, and runs alongside your truck at 60, then 65, then 75 mph, gesturing to you to pull over, THAT'S GONNA MAKE A LASTING IMPRESSION.
