Trinidad has thin waterfall country around it, just two falls on the page. Folsom Falls sits a short walk from the road across the New Mexico line, dogs welcome. Trinchera Falls is listed without much data behind it, so treat that one as a scouting trip. Locals wanting bigger water tend to head west into the Sangre de Cristos and make a weekend of it.

Located at 37.1751°N, -104.4908°W
