Cloudcroft Baby San story ties to town’s rise
Historian notes Herbert Stevenson’s dream of a baby sanatorium in Cloudcroft, the Baby San, born from summer heat and disease. The piece recalls early railroad expansion to the Sacramento Mountains, the 5 percent Cloudcroft grade, and the town’s development as a summer resort linked to infant health efforts. The narrative hints at personal tragedy with Stevenson’s first son and survival of the second, leading to continued Baby San history.
