New Mexico State University recently shared some standard colors on their Facebook page. The last color listed was “White Sands White”, which they assigned an #ffffff web-color designation to. This is a pure white designation, and it contradicts an earlier post from White Sands National Park which used winter snowfall as a contrast to show how the sand at White Sands National Park isn’t a true pure white.
Las Cruces Digest is taking this opportunity to share some of the color posts we have made over the past year… in one article.
