Daily Postcard: Early Sunrise Colors Sky Above Sangres

Daily Postcard: Today’s early morning sunrise colors the sky above the Sangre de Cristo Mountains as viewed from White Rock. The mountains were named in 1719 by the Spanish explorer Antonio Valverde y Cosio, who, impressed at sunrise by the red-tinted, snowy peaks, supposedly uttered a fervent ‘Sangre de Cristo’ (Blood of Christ).
