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. To the southwest untouched
old mining towns like Crested Butte and Durango stand
in the mountains, while Mesa Verde National Park preserves
perhaps the most impressive of all the cliff cities left
by the ancient Ancestral Puebloan civilization.
