They Used To Ski Here


39 miles as the crow flies to what was and still is the Cuchara Ski Resort. It was never a destination resort except for locals and many Texans who came up but downhill skiing with lifts and the whole works did happen but has not for some time.

The don't ski because it doesn't snow near enough anymore and for quite some time.  This picture was taken maybe yesterday. Just saying.

You can click on the picture to make it bigger twice.



The google image gives you another perspective as the top picture is a bit deceiving. You go there you are in the mountains and it's getting to that time to go see if they got any Columbines.

    It's a nice drive up through there, until you get down on the west side of Trinidad.

    It's different here in more ways than that.
