Salida – July 2001 – Colorado Central Magazine
To put it one way, Salida again has an outdoor swimming pool. To put it another way, it’s a topless pool.
The roof had to be removed after the Big Spring Dump of May 3-6 because some wooden support beams cracked under the weight of four feet of wet snow.
That closed the pool for a couple of weeks, as cranes removed the roof, but by Memorial Day, it was open again for summer swimming.
