"Wheeler Peak is the highest peak in the U.S. state of New Mexico. It is located northeast of Taos in the northern part of the state. It lies in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the southernmost subrange of the Rocky Mountains.
Formerly named Taos Peak, after the nearby town of Taos, New Mexico, it was renamed Wheeler Peak in 1950."
