On July 8, 1694, Spanish Conquistador Don Diego de Vargas and his army, two weeks before the Battle of Astialakwa, reached Costilla County. Diego Vargas is not the first Spaniard in Colorado. Juan de Archuleta led an expedition into Colorado in 1664 – his expedition is the first traceable Spanish expedition into Colorado. In 1647, Governor Luis Rosas fought with the Utes in northern New Mexico. While Rosa came near Colorado, it has not been verified he actually did. Costilla County was the first area of Colorado to have been colonized. Costilla County, CO, is best known for its stunning natural landscapes, including the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and the Great Sand Dunes National Park. The county has a rich history tied to early Spanish settlers and gold mining, and it offers outdoor activities like hiking, fishing, and skiing, making it a serene getaway.>
