COLORADO is one of the least geographically
homogenous of the United States, ranging from the flat, endless plains of
the east to the colossal mountains of the west. In the north, Native
Americans hunted and trapped in lush mountain valleys in summer, and
returned to the prairies for the winter; in the south, the Ancestral Puebloans of Mesa Verde grew corn on their isolated mesas and shared in
the great early civilization of the southwest.
For the modern visitor, the obvious first port of call is
Denver, at the
eastern edge of the Rockies and the biggest city for six hundred miles.
Outside
Denver, the northern half of the state holds the most popular
destinations, starting with the dynamic college town of
Boulder and the
spectacular Rocky Mountain National Park. The majority of the resorts
that have made Colorado the continent's foremost skiing destination
snuggle into the mountains to the west of Denver: Summit County attracts
the most visitors,
Vail
is considered best for terrain, and
Aspen boasts
the glitziest après-ski scene. The far west of the state stretches onto
the red-rock deserts of the Colorado Plateau.
Pikes Peak towers over the
enjoyable city of
Colorado Springs, but the rest of the state's southeast
quarter is mostly agricultural plains. |
