Southern Colorado
What the sunshine is to Arizona, New Mexico and southern California, the clear mountain air is to southern Colorado. The state has 1,000 peaks that reach 10,000 feet or above, and 54 peaks that top 14,000 feet.
Coupled with an average of more than 310 days of sunshine per year, this has made Colorado a year-around tourist mecca. And why not? There are plenty of wide open spaces in which to go sightseeing, fish, hunt, ski, hike, play golf, or engage in whatever form of recreation appeals to you.
Colorado is definitely not overcrowded. The entire state has the same population as Los Angeles, and only half the population of New York City. While Colorado ranks eighth in size geographically, it ranks a mere 26th in terms of population.
The state's largest city, and capital, Denver has a population of only half a million people.
Colorado Springs
By car: Just an hour's drive south of Denver, Colorado Springs is served by a single interstate, I-25, which skirts the eastern face of the Rockies and roughly parallels US highways 85 and 87. East and west, the main artery is US 24 - Platte Avenue as it enters the city from the east and the Midland Expressway as it exits the city to the west.
By air: Colorado Springs Airport, 7770 Drennan Rd., 719/550-1900 or 800/462-6774, receives over 100 direct flights a day via American, America West, Continental, Delta, Northwest, TWA, United, Western Pacific, and several smaller airlines.
From its origin as a railroad town, Colorado Springs grew rapidly into Colorado's second largest city. In the 1950s, the area benefited tremendously when it was
