It’s hard to say what put Salida on the map? What has brought it to the attention of outdoor enthusiasts, thrill seekers, ski bums, real estate investors, hikers, bikers, rafters, ranchers, anglers, hunters, artists, families and eccentrics alike? Could it be the Gold Medal fly fishing? or the 20 minute drive to Monarch Ski Area? the raging white water? the Rainbow Trail? the affordable home prices? the proximity to REAL wilderness? the fifteen 14,000 ft. peaks? the active art community? the wide open spaces? the slower pace?
As you read through the posts in this blog you’ll find a lot of the posts are real estate oriented – what to buy, where and when, current trends, tips to help you sell – but you’ll also find testimony to the beauty of one of the most dynamic places on earth, a place where the high desert meets the Rocky Mountains meets the sky – the kind of place you might want to call home.
