Speaker: Pat Kuhlhoff, president November 15 at 6pm #2 County Road 187 (former Rising Moon Gallery) Register and More Information at: http://siabiquiu.org/abiquiu-talks.html Did you know that Abiquiu was once a thriving trade center? Join us as Pat discusses the history of the Old Spanish Trail and the important role that Abiquiu, and the residents, played in trade along the Old Spanish Trail. The Old Spanish Trail has been called the most arduous and difficult trail in the United States. With Native American historical roots, the trail was used by the adventurous and opportunists bringing textiles from Santa Fe to trade for mules and horses in Los Angeles beginning in the early 1800s. Spanning more than 2500 miles, parts of the trail were used by fur trappers and later by railroad and military surveyors.
