    Teófilo Trujillo was my great great grandfather and Pedro Trujillo was my great grandfather. I want to thank all of the contributors who put this documentation together of the Trujillo family. My family is grateful.

      I’m sure you are proud of the role you’re family played in the history of this land. Do you still live in the area?

      What a wonderfully rich heritage you have. This must have been fun for your family to watch. I live in Pagosa Springs, CO and love the history of the original Spanish land grant ranches here.

      @10:00 The show a picture of the 1860's of a Trujillo man with boy on either side of him. Have you seen or heard of this picture before. It is true/real of your ancestors?

    I absolutely love Rocky mountain pbs and also everyone that reads this should also check out the Colorado Matters podcast to have current news and also the rich history from UA-cam channels like this gem

      I'm gonna watch all of them pertaining to Colorado right now as I have family living & raising their young there. Kids would enjoy learning this about where they live. I was amazed by how much Indian info. has come in and changed all the pink male fakery that was put into destroying an entire nation, many on this continent and claiming it's all pink people who were here first.

    Misleading tile. Very little to do with the sandunes

    That japanese guy was fenomenal....he originally wanted to exploit the area, but was intelligent enough to see it's beauty and decide to preserve it. Or maybe that land is enchanted.

      It is enchanted! Living in the SLV is magical.

    Ive taken a few geology classes in the state of CO
    We had a field trip to the dunes
    No geologist ive spoken to has the same theory of how the sand got there .
    Its a mystery still

    i had a good friend that was from the san luis valley, left in the late '60's.
    she never seemed aware of this history. her family were part of
    a mormon incursion into the valley that happened a bit later, i think.

    I believe the town of Garcia is the oldest town in Colorado.

    • @cherb_soco1891
      @cherb_soco1891 2 роки тому

      It is! San Luis is the oldest incorporated town. 😉

    • @muck691
      @muck691 2 роки тому

      I believe you are corect. The town was orginally named 'Manzanares', then renamed Garcia when the post office was established. Garcia sits right on the Colorado, New Mexico border.

    They go home disturb ancestors when legislation needs to see ancestors feelings, theyll still be upset but love you anyway, hard decisions have to be met, messengers The Saints Air

    So, did the natives die out?

    • @cherb_soco1891
      @cherb_soco1891 2 роки тому

      No. The Diné (Navajo) & Ute, along with the other Tribes were run off to Reservations. There are many Indigenous People here in our beautiful Valley.

    The video is interesting enough, but it unfortunately uses the racist pejorative "anglo" egregiously.

    No sand machines allowed at these dunes. What a waste.

    • @vincentconti3633
      @vincentconti3633 4 роки тому +2

      Because they would be flattened in short time. It's already happened to other dunes!

    Sounds like the Japanese guy made a stop in Crestone & may have got a hold of some LSD & changed his mind on building a resort.
