And in the year 1881, that’s precisely what it was; attracting mountain men, outlaws, trappers, gold seekers, traders and cowboys. In the early days gold was discovered on Baldy Peak, and the area filled with miners in search of their fortunes. Between the miners and the travelers along the mountain branch of the Santa Fe Trail, Cimarron quickly became a boom town, boasting 16 saloons, 4 hotels and numerous trading stores. The burgeoning city also gained a reputation for lawlessness with bullets flying freely.

By the 1880s, the gold was running out, but the influx of people continued. Ranchers, townsfolk, the wealthy and the poor. Cimarron is imbued with them all. Pueblo, Apache and Navaho roamed the land.

With the Sangre de Cristo (Blood of Christ) Mountain range in its shadow, Cimarron lays seemingly serene from a distance, but up close, it teams with life. Welcome and join us.
