Nice article in Denver paper today about McElmo Creek and environs, near Cortez. Anyone have any perspective on the area?

Thanks for sharing the article Mike. I have been to McElmo Canyon. It is west of Cortez as you are going toward the 4 Corners. There is a creek - McElmo Creek that winds it way through there. It is green down on the valley floor and the mountains are what I would call red high desert mountains with pinons. The canyon is warmer than probably most of Colorado with something like over 320 sunny days and a growing season of over 125 days. The canyon too protects the valley floor. There is a small "inn" that really looks like a house to me but it is an inn located there. I knew there were vineyards but never did know what the wine was or where it went. Nice article.
