Colorado and Gulf highway received
title to recognition on the nations
road map with the dedication OF the
$4,000 concrete bridge across the
Huerfano on the direct line between
Pueblo and Walsenburg. The chris
tening was done by little Miss Vir-

A delegation of 800 persons were
present from Pueblo. Walsenburg,
Trinidad, La Veta. Monte Vista, Del
Norte. San Luis and other cities and
towns OF southern Colorado. The
principal address was delivered by
Judge Henry Hunter of Trinidad.
County commissioners were present
from Huerfano. Las Animas, Costilla
and Pueblo counties.
The Pueblol lWalsenburg section of
the Colorado and Gulf highway long
has been bugbear to motorists. who
frequently were obliged to make q
long detour by way of La Junta. The
completion of the new bridge and the
improvement OF Its approaches In
sures the practicability of the entire
highway at all seasons.
AT Walsenburg the Colorado and
Gulf highway branches off into the
old Spanish trail. At Trinidad 1t
connects with the Santa Fe trail.
