Alamosa, Colorado - KALS - San Luis Valley Regional Airport
San Luis Valley Regional Airport, Bergman Field, is 2 miles south of Alamosa, CO. It is open to the public, supporting commercial service and general aviation.
Camera views include Crestone, Blanca Peak, the San Luis hills and the east approach to Wolf Creek Pass. Weather in this high plains region is quite variable. High winds are common with large directional changes with increasing altitude. This divergence in winds is obvious when low-level cumulus clouds move one way, and the high-level cirrus clouds move another. Isolated thunderstorms often move through the area quickly.
Buena Vista, Colorado - KAEJ - Central Colorado Regional Airport
The Central Colorado Regional Airport sits on a mesa above the intersection of US 285 and US 24. Buena Vista is in a valley that is closely surrounded by mountains on three sides. This topography creates what is called a 'blue hole.' Throughout most of the year, the sky above the airport is cloudless, even though the surrounding mountains may be shrouded by clouds. Consequently, the airport enjoys many more days of visibility than most mountain airfields.
