Question Can I pull in Co Springs TV from Fort Garland Mountains

Any chance of me picking up any of those signals from the Springs? I am in the Sangre De Cristo Ranches about 10 miles southwest of Fort Garland, right off of Hwy 159. I am only picking up channel 39 analog station, but nothing else. I am going to be ordering either an a Antennacraft UHF/HDTV Antenna Extreme Deep Fringe Areas 100in BOOM/20 WIDTH/38V or an Antennas Direct 91XG, unless someone who knows the area recommends something completely different. I am from Houston and have experience in pulling in signals from flat land from the nation's 4th largest city, so trying to receive long distance channels from weak towers over 100 miles away with complete mountain ranges in between and living on the side of a mountain at 8500 elevation, is a bit of a challenge for me.

I may be closer to New Mexico and should be aiming for those signals. Can you or anyone out there help me? My neighbor has tried most of the Walmart antennas, but even the extreme fringe doesn't do anything for our tv reception.
