About Questa, NM

Questa was originally named San Antonio del Rio Colorado. Later, a U.S. postmaster changed its name to Questa. The postmaster misspelled the name—according to Spanish spelling rules, it should have been spelled Cuesta, derived from the Spanish for "ridge" or "slope." Despite the error, the village has kept the name. The village of Questa is close to the ancient Kiowa trail, a Native American trade route that connected the Ute, Kiowa, and Comanche tribes to the north with the Pueblo tribes to the south.
