Actually it's Santa Fe, NM followed by Cheyenne, WY. Denver, "The mile High City" is a distant third. Santa Fe, NM (6,348 ft.); Cheyenne, WY (6,062 ft.); Denver, CO (5,280 ft.)

Albuquerque, NM

Santa Fe, New Mexico, is somewhere between 6,500 - 8,000 feet depending what part you're in (the Northern part is near Taos, which is at 10,000 feet). It is a good 1,500 feet easy above Denver, a little above Cheyenne and a very difficult place to drink heavily if you're not used to the altitude.

Santa Fe New Mexico is the clear winner. Elevations: Santa Fe = 6995 feet Cheyenne Wyoming = 6089 feet Denver Colorado = 5280 feet http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Fe,_New_Mexico also states very clearly that Santa Fe is the highest capital city in the nation.
