Sitting atop La Mesa de la Piedad y de la Miserico

Sitting atop La Mesa de la Piedad y de la Misericordia (the Hill of Piety and Misery) in San Luis, CO, the oldest town in Colorado, is the Shrine of the Stations of the Cross. Fifteen bronze statues created by local artist Huberto Maestas depicting the Stations of the Cross, the final hours of Jesus’ life, are positioned along a ¾-mile dirt trail that ends at the dramatic and beautiful La Capilla de Todos Los Santos or Chapel of All Saints, a Moorish-looking church built in the 1980s. Parking is free at the base of the mesa near that start of the trail and the views are stunning.

Near Cloudcroft, NM is the Mexican Canyon Trestle,

Near Cloudcroft, NM is the Mexican Canyon Trestle, a portion of the former Alamogordo and Sacramento Mountain Railway. Constructed in 1899 and in use until 1947, it stands 52 over the valley floor, runs 323 feet in length, and was one of 58 trestles built on a 32-mile track from Alamogordo to numerous timber areas in the mountains, before being repurposed to transport tourists. The trestle can be viewed from an overlook on US Highway 82 or you can hike into it (like we did) on the Old Cloudcroft Highway Trail Loop. You can’t access the trestle, but you can hike right up to the edge and imagine what it would have been like to travel through this area back in the day. #roadsideamerica #newmexicotrue #cloudcroft #tinsheets
