Colorado is state of mountains and hills. Colorado is the highest of the states elevation at over 14,000 feet high. Many people visit Colorado each year. Many of the people that visit here are outdoor enthusiasts, skiers, and people just wanting to go on a get away vacation. This state offers numerous things to go, see, and do. For the outdoor enthusiasts, Colorado has: many mountains to hike on, trails to walk on, nature centers to visit, and many other possibilities to do. The skiers have many mountains on top of other mountains to choose from to ski on. “Skiing is the major money making factor for Colorado.” -Comptons Interactive Encyclopedia. The people that just want to get away from the everyday hustle and bustle, find it comforting to retreat to nature for a quiet and peaceful vacation.
The information is unlimited. It just depends on what you want to find. “In Colorado, it?s biggest city is it?s capitol.” -World Book Atlas 1993. The capitol of Colorado is Denver. Some of the attractions Colorado offers is: skiing, hiking, and exploring. These play a major role in Colorado?s economic progression. The land in Colorado is rocky and steep basically all over. This does not make it a very good place to farm or raise livestock. (Unless you raise Mountain goats) Although it is not good agriculturally, Colorado is a beautiful place to see.
The recreation in Colorado is ideal for the outdoors (wo)man. The major sports end of the recreation has: football (Denver Broncos),basketball (Denver Nuggets), and baseball (Colorado Rockies). A popular sport stadium to visit is Mile High stadium, home of the Denver Broncos. Skiing is also a very popular activity in Colorado. Many thousand people visit the ski facilities of Colorado each year. “It is the best ski area in the United States,” many skiers say. Two of the major resorts in Colorado are Aspen and Vail. Aspen is a loose and carefree kind of resort. While Vail is more of a family resort to go to. “The latest form of recreation in the in the skiing department is the ski board. The ski board is just what the name says, it is a pair of skis as well as a snowboard. There are to units that make up this “marvel of modern technology,” the skis hook together to form a board. The bindings then slide into a different position to work both ways. This enables people to hike up trails, and set the board up, and snowboard down. Many people have been buying these skiboards and using them to go on mountain treks.” – P.E. T.V. Skiing is the main basis of my report. In the itinerary, the majority of the things done involved skiing of some sort.
There are many other tourist attractions in Colorado. Like said above, skiing is a major attraction in Colorado. Some of the other things in Colorado to do are; The U.S. Mint offers a educational view of the money making process. Many people visit this site each year. There are millions of coins produced each year at the mint.
Although Colorado is not a good place to grow crops, it has other resources it depends on. These such resources contribute to the well being of the economy. The mountains provide raw material to mine. The forests are numerous, this is great for the logging company. This is also a major contributor to the economy .By selling the wood to mills, who then sell to people who need it, and then it pays back the workers to form a perfect cycle of distribution.
Colorado has many rest areas such as hotels. Although, no information could be found on any specific ones, but they should have: Holiday Inns, Best Westerns, Comfort Inns, Red Roof Inns, Nights Inn, Ramada Inns, and Holiday Inns. The prices on these may be a bit more than those in Ohio, because of location.
The eating places are numberless. Colorado has many places to eat like any other place. “Some of these smoke free restaurants are: (Denver) Caf? Paradiso, Kate?s, New Orient, Viaggio, Walnut Caf?, Bluepoint, Cinnobon, Genhas Khan, Healthy Habits, Kokoro, Mint Caf?, Mountain Tower Caf?, Steak Escape, and Yoshio to name a few, (Aspen) Aspen Grove Caf?, Bahn Thai, Poppycocks, and The Silver City Grill, (Vail) Carrot Top, Daily Grind, L?Ostello, Sweet Basil, Terra Bistro, and The Wild Flower.”-Colorado Guide to Smoke-Free Dinning. The prices of these fine restaurants are a little on the high side, but it is worth it to spend a little more on a vacation of a life.
Like the other information, travel information was not found. This report has the best it could find though. “When flying, use only America Airlines. The fastest way to get where you want to go.” -Commercial. The price like most, will set the cash flow back a couple of hundred dollars.
In closing, if this report was helpful and insightful,(which it was meant to be), Colorado should be the next place to visit on the places to vacation list. So happy traveling and remember, use America Airlines, for the fastest and easiest way to get where you want to go.”-Commercial
