    Mission Wolf - Being greeting by a grey wolf at Mission Wolf

    We spent 3 days up here volunteering with some of my high school age girl scouts…read more Our experience far exceeded anything that we could have ever imagined. M:W just experienced some flooding so they were in a bit of stress and chaos when we were there. some of the fencing and structures came down and got tore up. As a volunteer camping, we needed to be there between 9 and noon. We arrived around 1030. The road to get there is a little rough. We did it in my honda pilot AWD and my coleader had her highlander. Some pot holes, ruts and jutting rocks so just be prepared. If it has been rainy the road will be even rougher to get up and down as will be slick. Cows around there dont have fences so be sure to take it easy when driving so you dont accidentally hit any animals. We were greeted upon arrival, and assigned a long term volunteer who they call staff to give us a tour. Iyla did a great job with giving us information and showing us around. Kent was doing an education talk right after that and we were all so glad that we attended. It was so informative and interesting! We did get to go meet a couple of the wolves after which was beyond anything we had imagined. After the talk, we went down to our camp area to set up. And when we were done we came back up the road and they set us up with some tasks. We worked until around 830 pm and headed back to our site. The next 2 days we did more volunteering. Also got to watch the wolves feed. And do a little more interaction with them. Everyones volunteer experience may be different but ours was absolutely amazing! It was something we had to set up in advance with them as they have limited space. You are supposed to bring your own tent, sleeping bags, etc when staying on site. We all had an amazing time and will be back next year to volunteer again! The organization really takes care of their animals and has a lot of heart and soul.

    The staff was very respectful of the wolves and spent a great deal of time educating us. I was one…read moreof the lucky ones a wolf greeted. My only concern is that admission is free. With increasing cost of food, vet care and maintaining the massive grounds, even a small entrance fee would help. Please be careful not to confuse Mission Wolf with Wolf Mission which has had some negative reviews.

    A Magical, Mind-Opening Night Under the Stars…read more We arrived not quite sure what to expect--just a hunch that Crestone would be the ideal setting for some UFO-gazing. What we experienced with The Sky Experience was so much more than we imagined! From the very beginning, Nate was an exceptional host and guide--warm, knowledgeable, and deeply tuned in. He made sure we were completely comfortable, even relocating us to a better spot to avoid the seasonal mosquito swarm (a thoughtful touch that didn't go unnoticed!). What really set this experience apart was Nate's storytelling and insights. They were grounded and accessible, yet filled with a sense of curiosity and awe that made us feel both humbled and inspired. As we looked up into the vast sky, surrounded by the natural magic of Crestone, it felt like we were tapping into something bigger than ourselves. We saw so much activity in the night sky--it's hard to even describe--but Nate's guidance helped us interpret and truly appreciate it all. I'll absolutely be returning the next time I'm in the area. If you're even remotely curious about the cosmos, consciousness, or just want to do something unique and unforgettable, don't miss this experience.

    This was an amazing experience! Nate was so helpful and knowledgable AND... we saw many UFOs! We…read morecame to Crestone primarily to have this sky experience and he delivered! We will be back.

    Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad - 6/27/2024

    I wrote a review for the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad in Chama, NM…read more The same railroad has a depot in Antonito, CO, so here goes a similar review... My daughters, significant other, and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip aboard the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad. We were in Antonito, CO by 8AM to checkin as I was notified to be so we could ride about one hour to Chama, NM, via charter bus. We took this route since my SO lives near Antonito. As soon as we arrived at the train station, we had enough time for a restroom break which had a super long line of older women - just being truthful - LOL, then it was all aboard engine #484. Keep in mind, there are restrooms on the train. Our first docent in deluxe car B was awesome! She was funny. Pointed out features and historical facts in a timely manner. She had breakfast pastries out for us before we sat down. The docent we had after lunch at the halfway point was terrible. I spent most of my time standing with the breeze in my hair in the gondola car. The precipitation the landscape received as of June 27, 2024, made the ride much more enjoyable. It was gorgeous. The buffet lunch at Osier was surprisingly delicious. It was prepared by a women's group. Two adult and two child tickets for the whole ordeal was not cheap: $711.90 which included historical preservation fees in addition to other fees. I only wish the chairs were more comfortable and adult beverages could be bought and drank in the deluxe cars. We arrived back in Antonito at about 4:30PM. I probably won't do it again for a long time if ever again, but I have amazing photos of my daughters and memories I hope I'll not soon forget. Highly recommend.

    Some argue more scenic than the Durango train. I would disagree but this is definitely scenic. My…read moretrip in mid October traveled through the high mesa country along the New Mexico -Colorado border area with trees in bright yellows. I started at Antonito CO then traveled to Osier for lunch before continuing into Chama NM and riding the bus back. The narrow gauge allowed for sharper turns and numerous picture opportunities of the engine in action. The train twists its way up the side of a mesa before heading high above a second valley floor. Occasional rock cuts plus a few tunnels add to the journey. But for most it's the chugging of the locomotive, the swaying of the car and the lack of cell phone coverage that makes this trip relaxing. At Osier the train pulls onto a siding where it is greeted by the eastbound out of Chama. Here passengers are treated to a lunch of pulled pork, roasted chicken, salads, beans, potatoes and dessert. Once full you board either the continuation of your original train or head back to where you came. The trip lasts approximately 6.5 hours including the hour four lunch and travels about 65 miles. Elevations range from the bottom at 7500 feet to Cumbres Pass at just above 10,000 feet. There is an open air car, snack car and people are free to stand on the end platforms of each car. The bus option take 1:05 to get from one depot to the other. Mine was after the trip but one could get it done early in the morning as well. I suggest doing the whole run and use the bus. It's an all-around great trip. Grumpy old man note: young kids will love this trip for about an hour. Then they are going between cars and trying to overcome boredom. If traveling with kids too young to just sit and watch for hours then I recommend the shortest trip option available.
