I removed the redirect to Talk:Sangre de Cristo Range since the division between the two articles is pretty well established now. Comments about the Colorado portion (north of La Veta Pass) should go into Talk:Sangre de Cristo Range. -- Spireguy 02:41, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
I'm not happy with the list as it now stands. This is a whole grab-bag of issues that probably were even worse before this list was made but should be fixed while there's a few editors looking at this
Perhaps more to come. — jdorje ( talk) 01:14, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

I love the summary of the notable peaks. I am getting kind of confused, though. The list of notable peaks is different in this article than in the Sangre de Cristo Range - and the source for the list in the range article. Can someone help me out? Thanks!-- CaroleHenson ( talk) 21:34, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
This mountain range is referred to by Paul Simon of the title track of his hearts and bones album and by Cormac McCarthy in his novels. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.158.55.112 ( talk) 06:00, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
The section starts off with "...divided into various subranges, described here from north to south." and then proceeds to list peaks by elevation, with information on the subranges in the comments of various peaks. How about describing the subranges in a paragraph preceding the list and removing that info from the comment section of the list? I'd need to confirm the north->south ordering of the subranges before I do a move myself. Or has this been discussed and discarded already, and the starting sentence simply an artifact?

Denverjeffrey, You removed content that said that the mountains were volcanic and in you edit summary that it was not volcanic, it was stocks.
Do you have a source for that?– CaroleHenson ( talk) 07:40, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
