Colorado
offers inspiring landscape of blue skies, tall mountains,
rich sunsets, green, green forest, red rocks, white snow and
clear blue streams and rivers. Named for its colorful
qualities, Colorado is an outdoor person place, a romantic
mountain place, an autumn color place, and a historic
preservation place. Above all, Colorado is fun. Its unique
landscape earns distinction on many levels. It has the
highest suspension bridge in the world over the Royal Gorge
one of the deepest, the highest sand dunes called the Great
Sand Dunes, and some of the oldest and most spectacular
Indian ruins, Mesa Verde being the most famous. It also has
the highest toll road in the world and the steepest railroad
incline in the world. The red rock canyons of the Dolores
River often filmed in westerns and Ute Mountain relinquish
incredible sunsets. Mile high Denver and Colorado Springs
offer big city amenities in mountain settings. And the ski
resorts of Telluride, Silverton and Ouray are the divine
trinity of the San Juan Mountains. Lodging in Colorado is as
varied as its landscape from Western-Victorian
Bed
and Breakfasts, to mountain lodges, country inns and
ranches -
though they all something in common... a warm welcome. |
