About Skoglund Excavating Inc.

Moffat sits far out on the floor of the San Luis Valley, where the Sangre de Cristos catch the first sun and the cold comes down hard and dry on clear nights. Snow doesn't so much accumulate here as sweep across — it drifts over the county roads and packs into every approach off Highway 17. Skoglund Excavating Inc. clears it: plowing drives, ranch entrances and yards, opening the long straight lanes, and pushing the banks back so the next storm has somewhere to go. A plowed road running dead straight toward a white mountain range at seven in the morning is a sight worth the early start. Moffat and the nearby valley communities of Crestone, Hooper, Villa Grove and Saguache are all part of the territory.
