Dolores (Spanish for “sorrows” and named for the river on which it is located) is located at the mouth of the Dolores Valley on the Southwestern corner of Colorado. It was originally established as a station on the Rio Grande Southern Railroad, and there are a couple cool hotels that date back to the 1800’s, when the railroad thrived. It currently has about 930 residents.
