2026 Feb 13: Car Aus to La Junta

Next stop: La Junta.

On the (paved) road there:

Stopped where we are staying, the @RanchoPatagon / Doble AA / Acogedora cabañas, dropped off the bags, and did a pretty strenuous hike up the side of a mountain - “Las Bardas”. Their dogs Lola and <unknown perro> came with us:

Good dinner @ mi casita de the, stroll around town, spoke with the proprietor Victor. They’re setting up to be a wwoof location - world wide opportunities for organic farming. People come and spend some weeks working the farm/ranch in exchange for free room & board. Follow ‘em on instagram @ranchopatagon.
