the charming mountain village of Westcliffe. Drive through
the magnificent beauty of the Wet Mountain Valley at the base of
the Sangre de Cristo mountain range, the highest, straightest,
longest, most continuous range of mountains on earth! (John
Fielder, photojournalist.), then on to Wetmore to dine at
the Wetmore Steakhouse. Enjoy the rustic, relaxed dining
and top it off with one of their wonderful homemade pies. After
your dinner, head back to Pueblo for your last evening of pampered
luxury at the Abriendo Inn.
