Does anyone know if these San Juan photos were in a Life magazine issue?
All of the San Juan photos date to April 4, 1950. I tried looking online through the various April issues but could not find these photos associated with anything. I'd love to read any accompanying story to go along with the photos, but just can't seem to find it. Maybe these are just photos and never made the magazine.
These are some of the best San Juan photos I've seen yet, and here I thought I've seen them all.
This definitely gets a
from me.
Looked like a wonderful way to travel. I hate the drive to Durango and we do it every year. Would be nice to take the train, even if we had to start out in Denver or Alamosa.
