Crestone & the Baca Grande are renowned for towering 14,000-ft peaks, soaring views & unspoiled nature. Indigenous Americans along with pilgrims of varying ilk have been drawn to these mountains for centuries. Legend has it the mountains earned their name (Sangre de Cristo) after the red hues observed on the peaks at sunset. Crestone is a historic mining town from the 19th century. Today, it is an eclectic mountain community, far from the hustle and bustle, where one will as soon encounter an outdoor enthusiast as a nun/monk in full burgundy robes. The eastern peaks cast their protective gaze over the lands below. Only a couple of miles to pavement, then a 15-min drive to town.
