Rest area I 25 exit 18 near Trinidad Colorado

March 7, 2017

We stopped here just about every year there is very nice parking. There is a nice outside area room for me to drive around. The inside area was nice with a glassed in the area and places to sit and rest. They have a family/accessible restroom which was very nice and was actually unlocked this time. Sometimes in the past it hasn’t been.

This was a nice place to rest and go to the restroom. There was a family/accessible restroom which worked great. The main doors are automatic which was very nice. Then the restroom then another set of automatic doors inside. This is a visitor center with a small museum plus a large area were the whole wall is glass so you can look out and was very nice to sit in the sun.

There are two handicap spots in front and a brick path in front. Inside there is some room to sit and rest, there were a couple tight places.  The restroom was a decent size and had a decent stall and I could get to the sink. Just don’t go there when there’s a broke down train with all the passengers all over the place, in the parking lot and inside.

This rest area has good parking and a nice indoor area and space to rest. The main restroom is okay, but the stalls aren’t that big.  There is a family/accessible restroom that is nice when it’s unlocked but most of the times we’ve been there it’s been locked.

 This was a nice rest area that we stopped at before mostly because there's a good amount of area inside the sit and rest. I didn't see if family accessible room so we just use the regular restroom which worked okay.

This rest area was just like the previous one we visited at Fort Steele in the building set up and the parking lot. However the accessible bathroom was more spacious and quite a bit easier to use. And no full blast air-conditioning.

 

 

 

 

Painted Cliffs Welcome Center - Interstate 40, Exit #359 in Arizona

Parking was good there were some handicapped spots that all would work well.  The doors and entryways were alright.  There was a decent amount of space in the welcome center that had all the travel information.   the bathroom was okay the stalls were kind of small with not much extra space, the sink was okay to use they didn't have any paper towels so we had to use the dryer thing which I don't think it's a good idea to drive my power chair with a wet hand to get to the dryer so we bring our own paper towels just in case.

Northwest New Mexico Visitor Center I-40 Exit 85 - Grants New Mexico

There was plenty of space to park in the parking lot with multiple handicap spots that all would work well.  It was a little steep to get from there up to the door the sidewalk/path from the parking lot to the door was rough and bumpy to drive over with my wheelchair. 

 

When I got there, there was an automatic door which made things a lot easier.  

 

 

Inside there was a ton of space and a nice big window to look out also there was travel information filling the building along with a Museum and a small auditorium. They had a family accessible bathroom which had quite a bit more space than normal stall would have, this was nice.  The sink and the paper towels are both easy to get to and worked well.
