The Dunes are very worthy of the designation. They’re the pride of the San Luis Valley, which I know you think should be part of New Mexico, but which is really puro Colorado.
The extra funding provided by the Great Sand Dunes National Park designation will be used to hire 50 rangers to keep the cats out.
But I heard the rangers will actually be stationed in Madras, India.
