One sees from the train a ruddy cliff, rising
to a height of several hundred feet, known as
Simpson's Rest. Upon its top a party of pioneers
were besieged by Indians in the early days and
one of the survivors, named Simpson, chose to
be buried there many years after, when his time
came to die. A rude monument surmounts
Simpson's Rest and may be seen from the train.
Trinidad is the county seat of Las Animas
County. Altitude 5,982 feet. Population 7,000.
