Salida, Colorado - History & Information - #11/100

Today's adventure took us to Salida, the Heart of the Rockies! (July 17, 2022)

Salida has grown from a railroad maintenance center into a bustling mountain city. Today, the area is famous for it's art culture, hot springs and outdoor activities.

My family and I are on a mission to learn about the history and geography of where we live by visiting every town within a 4 hour drive of our house. We live in Pueblo West and once per month we are going to venture out and explore the great state of Colorado, one town at a time!
