🌍 Modern Explorer: Reigniting the Age of Discovery
Modern Explorer is no longer just a platform for seeking the unknown—it’s become a full-fledged tourism and expedition business committed to reawakening the spirit of exploration in the modern world. Our mission is simple but bold: to reignite the Age of Discovery, starting in the heart of the San Luis Valley. The journey began in the childhood of founder Mateo Argüello, raised among the wonders of Ecuador, always driven by an insatiable desire to uncover the mysteries of the world and the universe. But it was a life-changing encounter with the North American hominid (Sasquatch) that shifted the path from past mysteries to living enigmas. As the team grew—especially with passionate contributors like Glenn Norberg, whose interviews, visuals, and field work elevated the mission—so did the community. What started as a search became a movement. We’re now launching Modern Explorer Expedition Tours: in-person walking tours across Crestone and beyond. Guests can experience firsthand the legends, the history, the hauntings, the UFO sightings, and even explore active trails tied to ancient Spanish gold and hidden realities. As we grow, our expeditions will reach deeper into the mountains, ancient ruins, and forgotten trails—combining citizen science, history, and immersive adventure for global audiences.
