  • Alamosa Wildlife Refuge

    Drove out yesterday afternoon to the Rio Grande River bottom land wildlife refuge and it was awesome. Freezing temps felt like spring with the winter sun. Spotted 7 bald eagles with the binocs and this one was just on up the road,
    a wonderful Christmas week day.

          The shot south, dark mtn, is where the eagles are, also Pike's Stockade is on the Conejos River at the rt end, he came thru here in about the same winter conditions in Dec 1807. They had to hold up as most of the men had frozen feet and they couldn't go on...

          Interesting, thanks, when I was in junior high I read everything I could find concerning the mountain men and Indians.

          If you’d had been a mountain man, Hal, would you have looked like Robert Redford in Jeremiah Johnson?
