In this episode of American Road Trip Talk, Gary Mantz takes listeners on a journey to Southern Colorado's spectacular San Luis Valley. Joined by Julie Chacon, Executive Director of the Sangre de Cristo National Heritage Area and the Los Caminos Antiguos Scenic and Historic Byway, the conversation explores a secluded region rich with deep historical roots predating Colorado's statehood. Travelers looking for their next road trip destination will discover a wealth of outdoor adventures, including sandboarding at the Great Sand Dunes National Park, skiing at Wolf Creek, and camping under an official Dark Sky designation. Along with highlighting the area's stunning natural vistas, Julie emphasizes the importance of traveling responsibly by giving local wildlife their space and protecting the hidden locations of ancient indigenous petroglyphs.
