Which ranch?

[edit]

I am confused about two different places identified as the site of San Juan City. One is that it's now San Juan Ranch, which is 21 miles from Creede, along Crooked Creek, a little west of Highway 149. Another is Freemon's Guest Ranch, which is off Clear Creek, and about 17 miles from Creede, per Jenssen. (I think Google maps says 13.9 miles). So, for the moment, I set the article's Coord for San Juan Ranch - and there are two separate sections for each ranch.

I'm still working on sorting this out, but if someone has a good definitive site or can help me understand the differences in the sources, that would be great.–CaroleHenson (talk) 19:14, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think I've got it now, it seems clearly to be the present Freemon's Guest Ranch, but if I have misunderstood something, please let me know. It was a really tangled mess.–CaroleHenson (talk) 01:58, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Add strike out - the 13.9 miles was to Antelope Park, which I think used to be a bigger area that encompassed both ranches.–CaroleHenson (talk) 22:33, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
