Sunday morning, June 17, we left the Santa National Forest and headed for
Pagosa Springs, Colorado. It was mid-afternoon when we
arrived and it was 90 degrees and smokey. Pagosa Springs was also experiencing
fire – just 13 miles northwest of Pagosa, the Little Sand Fire was
burning.
Pagosa is very clean. The hot springs are amazing. $13 for a day pass at the springs or you can buy a week pass – very reasonable and many other ‘spa’ services are available.
Monday the smoke was even worse and so was the heat. We opted not to do any hiking and instead just enjoy the town of Pagosa, do laundry, grocery shop and catch
up on internet activities. After a full day we ate at
a very nice restaurant, The Alley House Grill. David had a delicious roasted pork chop in a mushroom sauce and I had Thai Chicken.
If it
hadn’t been so smokey and hot, we would have stayed longer.
