Salida Livestock Commission Company
Chaffee County
The Salida Livestock Commission is locally significant in the areas of agriculture and commerce for the role it played in the marketing of livestock in central Colorado, providing an important venue for buying and selling cattle, horses, and other animals.
Established in 1958, the sales barn complex is also a good example of a mid-twentieth century livestock facility including the sales barn, corrals, barns, loafing sheds, loading chutes, and scales.
