"The Baca: Place of Many Promises"
Denver Post Magazine - 2/3/85
“For years local prophets said that something very particular would happen at the Baca Grande, a stretch of magnificent landscape in the San Luis Valley in southern Colorado. They said it would become a Mecca for people seeking enlightenment from all over the world. They said it would be a retreat for modern-day mystics, a place to come and explore new possibilities for life on earth. Others scoffed at the idea….No matter, argued the prophets. The Baca, they claimed was a ‘power point’ on the surface of the globe, a special location with special energy that would attract the spiritually inclined and help them find transcendence. The land had a life all its own and would create something new, something unimaginable and astounding."
“Thinkers, Healers. Seekers Are Reaching for the sky at the Baca”
Boulder Daily Camera - 8/21/81
“The magnificent setting in southern Colorado lends itself to open-ended dreams on a grand scale. They involved the creation of an intellectual, cultural and spiritual community. And it is expected to provide both a post-industrial model for ordinary living and a center of inspiration and experimentation aimed at evolving a harmonious marriage between technology and ecology.”
“A Sacred Space”
Denver Post - 7/28/91
“For hundreds of years, the Navajo have called San Luis Valley “Bloodless Valley” because wars have never been fought here. They believe Blanca Peak (Sisnaajini), at the end of the valley, is one of the four sacred mountains of their ancestral land. There is an ancient Hopi prophecy that in the time of the purification ----when the earth is crumbling ----people of spirit from all over the world will gather here.” - Krátké a kreslené filmy
Man, it's beautiful, and inspiring! If I had the money, I would love to move my family! My daughter, she belongs in that place. I'm scared though. I hope she is found, and the evil is chased away.
It's truly magical here..a fairy land and today I found a stone seat to set on it's truly magical
This is beautiful idea to unite people in One Heart of all people with Mother Earth ✨💛✨
Thank you 🙏🏽👑
Haha, so crestone 😂 I love the valley.
Watching this in 2022.
The 1980’s was such a positive era. Makes me sad to watch the hopefulness of the original intentions for the Baca and knowing how it has developed 40 years later. Full of greed and drugs, AirBnBs and deceit.
So true.😢
With great responsibility comes great challenges. Upholding wisdom and being free comes with the rises and falls of a great people and time.
Weirdos are on stolen land!!
We are here now let us make the most of improving the future.
Love this!❤❤❤
I would like to consider the possibilities of coming to the area to help build some of the visions to make this place even more special. How and to whom do i make contact.
Those water spirits remind me of the cedar knees that grow down south in the bays edge
Curious comparison. Can you elaborate? Cypress knees fascinate me; their function has not been conclusively determined despite the common claim of supplying oxygen.
Yeah, sounds like the people from crestone.
Bloodless? Where's Kristal? Would she say the same?
😞 I have family in Moffat I herd about this tragedy. May everyone find peace. I’m so sorry 😞
when your one with everything you don't kill

The Woo woo may be strong but that doesn’t make the experience less real
Bunch of new agers
Oh yeah and this place is Reverent in every sense of the word and Beyond.
It’s more appropriate to say: The First Nation as opposed to Indians or Native Americans. The mere use of American, has a connection to America Vespus, the conqueror, but these people were here before the arrivals of any conquerors!
Thank you for sharing, im looking into this area to start my solar farm
Wasn't lost on me.
This is a dangerous drug addicts & murders paradise. Lots of criminals go on the run in Crestone for the fact it's lawless & police or Sherrif do not go there. Its policed by the Baca Grande HOA.
Yes you can go there to enjoy nature but be very careful.
I have a book that talks about the ute tribe fighting off others from this area. So idk about all this
Very Hard to believe since the Taos Pueblo and the Sky People had such terrible battles w/ the Spanish and those places aren’t that far away; especially the Taos Pueblo. What proof do they actually have? Promotional to embellish the mysticism for the clients they wish to attract to the religious centers; ya know they need to make money. I’m sure plenty of blood was shed in Alamosa; likely still is.
Very true spent 8 years in the valley and witnessed drugs violence bloodshed and corruption
If only we all could make " just enough" money from the petroleum industry to afford to pretend to give a crap about other people.
How many Dine live there now?
Jessica Kubalak aka Tedder stole my visitation rights from my 2 sons from me and keeps them in Crestone, CO. She honors no treaties. She is forever in contempt of court.
🎉what a bummer , now move in the only direction that will bring good things into your future
It's also a place of demons.
