I mentioned our trips to Ouray , and he is sending me info on things around Montrose for our next trip there. In conclusion, I suggest that we consider a 1998 Spring trip to try out the new book, and to try out the new casino. Return to Top Silver City, NM - I arrived in Silver City on Tuesday morning, Oct. 27. I stopped at the KOA , four miles E of town on a four-lane highway. The lady there is associated with the Chamber of Commerce, and gave me a bag full of information on the area.
Silver City is adjacent to the mountains and is a historic mining area.
She and her husband have a CJ Jeep. The town is good sized with an Albertsons and a Wal-Mart . The Diamond Shamrock C-store is adjacent to the KOA entrance. I originally suggested Silver City in response to an idea for a longer Spring trip. But, looking at the rainfall chart she gave me, and discussing the trails with her, it would appear that Sept. or early Oct. would be best.
