- Today's adventure took us to Trinidad, Colorado's Coal Queen! (December 12, 2022)
Trinidad began on the Santa Fe Trail and made it's legacy through coal mining. Once known as "The Sex Change Capital of the World", Trinidad today is popular for it's Victorian architecture, brick streets and marijuana industry.
*I forgot to include the many Spanish expeditions that passed through the area. The Purgatoire River was the most popular route from Santa Fe to the Great Plains.
My family and I are on a mission to learn about the history and geography of where we live by visiting every town within a 4 hour drive of our house. We live in Pueblo West and once per month we are going to venture out and explore the great state of Colorado, one town at a time!

Trinidad is an entity in it's own. Love it!
Thank you for doing these! As a native, I have so much history in many of these cities!
We stopped in town on our trip back to Texas from family vaca,we enjoyed the shops on main..told my girlfriend that I finally found a town I could move to and like it.. we'll be back again.. every one we talked to was super nice..
I spent February 23. In that town. Friendly people,clean,beautifully.
The Colorado State owned Baca-- Bloom museum is a must see in Colorado history. In the winter when you reviewed this video. It was closed, worth a trip back to do a video of. Also The Albert Mitchell museum on main street.
Lotta history in Trinidad, including all the time Mother Jones spent there during the infamous Ludlow massacre.
Thank you 👍 you and your family do great work! I appreciate you. The time and energy you put into your work shows! Keep it up 💯
Thank you for the words of encouragement. We have no plans of slowing down!
@@SkiLodgeColorado Im in southern Colorado feel free to email me. would love to meet you. my email is in my about tab. ✌
@@SkiLodgeColorado IS TRINIDAD A GOOD PLACE TO RAISE KID'S ???????
I guess just look at me 😵💫😵💫🤪👍

The new state park should be a great addition to Trinidad over the next several years. I just wonder if the cannabis boom may be ending with more widespread legalization.
The cannabis boom is already slowing with state sales dropping over the past year, but Trinidad is still growing, having become somewhat popular during covid-related moving.
I found your videos some weeks ago. Your job is great. I live in Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico. Guaymas is a natural port of the right coast of the California Gulf or "Mar de Corés" or "Mar Bermejo" (three names for the same place). Thank your for you and your family. Colorado, like New Mexico, California, Texas and Arizona are giving the americans and mexicans the opportunity to be better neighbors, friends and siblings. You are contributing with your labor to that. NOTE: Sorry if my english isn´t good. I apologize for that.
It's cool knowing my words are crossing international borders. I appreciate the words of kindness and hope I can continue making an impact.
This is a great and well-researched and presented channel. My ancestors immigrated to Trinidad in 1886 and owned homes businesses in many of the small surrounding towns. I am enjoying your trips and impressions very much. Thank you so much for doing this. Your kids may not yet know how lucky they are!
Thanks for the support!
@@SkiLodgeColorado MY GRANDPA WAS BORN HERE ON MAY 15, 1929.HE ALSO LIVED IN TRINCHERA AND PUEBLO
No mention of Bat Masterson? He was a Sheriff in this town beck in the Old West.
Loved your video. Art is also a big thing here❤
Fantastic art scene there!
Had to come back back to my Saturday day dream , when are you going to Durango ?
I love this town… the locals and businesses are so welcoming and friendly
Law enforcement works for the mafia. Dominic Junie Verquer coroner Las Animas county forges state death certificates
Good video! Minus the fracking comment.
I am enjoying your videos now on Saturday in AZ Because I am from there but can't afford CO ( said in a monotone) 😅
I live in trinidad colorado
I went to college there in 1968-1969 ( one year ) I did not like it that much I transferred to California. Thank you for showing Trinidad to remind my memory
Love to visit, but probably couldn't live there full time.
There is a Trinidad in the Caribbean
Love the info. Nothing personal against the narrator but it's a bit robotic. Find a smoother better narrator and it will take off. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed it. Just some advice from a random viewer.
Can't help my voice and no one else regularly available, but thanks for the view!
@@SkiLodgeColorado I wouldn't be able to do any better. But the content is good
I LOVE THIS!! #1 subs provider -> P R O M O S M!!!
Don't forget the museums name was changed by racist, from the Baca museum to the pioneer museum to remove the Hispanics from history.
Nothing but Sephardic arrogant circles in southern Colorado and northern New Mexico
Awww.
It’s an abandoned coal mining city, completely destitute, with nothing to see there.
They want people like you to stay away
