Coyote Gulch’s excellent EV adventure: 2026 #MonteVista Crane Festival

Looking north from the Monte Vista National Wildlife Refuge as the Sandhill cranes are flying in for their breakfast. (Sunrise March 6, 2026.)

I’m in the San Luis Valley for the 2026 Monte Vista Crane Festival. The Sandhills were very active this morning off Road 8S in the Monte Vista National Wildlife Refuge.

I charged in Pueblo and Cañon City on the way here. It is a breeze charging between Denver and Alamosa, even if you need a CHAdeMO connector like my Nissan Leaf. (Posting will be intermittent this weekend because the Wi-Fi signal in my hotel room is very weak. I posted this from the hotel lobby.)
