Yes. The best deal was riding from Chama. You got to overnight at Conejos Ranch. They had rooms in their lodge that otherwise went unrented because all their patrons wanted to stay in cabins. They had a great dining room with wonderful food too.

ON the Chama end I think they stayed at the Elkhorn and the River Bend Lodge.

The problem was the owners of the "lesser" accommodations in the area got pissed off because they weren't allowed to play. They went to the Commission and pitched a bitch, and in the spirit of political correctness, the whole project was scrapped.
