You should check out Bishops Castle if you get a chance, never see anything else like it and Bishops story is pretty amazing.

doc45Just an FYI that the cog railway is shutdown and probably will be closed for good. Kind of corny but Cave of the Winds is pretty fun as well. Absolutely agree with Cheyenne Mtn Zoo and the wolf rescue.
I’d avoid Dragonman’s at all costs.

Yanert98The area @ Woodland Park/Divide has some great trails for motorbikes and mountain bikes.
Lot's of fun to be had!

ChuckWallThere's a cliff house that was stolen from farther west and set in Manitou for tourists.
My cousin's high school diploma displayed at the Miramont Castle.
Manitou High Also, have some spring water, open spouts all over Manitou. My fave is up Ruxton just after leaving downtown. Very tasty that one. Oh, and the incline railway.
Ol' Number 5And 7 falls is nice.

Tour the Mollie Kathleen Gold mine in Cripple Creek.
Pike's Peak, obviously.

This plus Garden of the Gods is exactly what we did in October.
