Jim McCalpin: 02:35 So for the first 45 minutes that you're dealing with some nutcase, you're on your own. The closest policeman when you pick up a phone and dial 911 is in Saguache, a 45-minute drive away. There is no police presence in this town. You know, when I leave my house I don't lock the house. Jim McCalpin: 02:11 I haven't been in a city for so long, I don't know what people think is an average amount of crime. We police ourselves, and everybody understands this. I have been here full-time since 2000, so 18 years. Jim McCalpin: 01:45 Now, flash forward 110 years, there are very few Colorado towns left like Crestone. Economically this place has struggled since the mines gave out, 110 years ago. Their dreams would cost money to come to fruition, and no-one here has any money, but that doesn't stop them from dreaming. Jim McCalpin: 01:20 People that come to Crestone are dreamers.

Once you hit the small town of Moffat, you turn left onto Colorado road T, and at the end of that road, there's Crestone. As you approach the Sangre De Cristo range of the Rockies it's wide open sky, wide open road, and just mountains.

On the way to Crestone you curve around mountainsides, and dip into valleys, passing by a series of ranches and small former mining towns. A far more scenic route compared to my drives from Atlanta to Ocilla.

Payne Lindsey: 00:3 1 The drive from Denver to Crestone is beautiful.
