Crestone Ziggurat.

Crestone, Colorado

Crestone Ziggurat

Climb to the top of this spiritual tower, and you'll be rewarded with spectacular views.

Skyline Drive

This razorback ridgeline has doubled as a scenic drive since the early 1900s.

Skeeball part of the arcade

While most of the games in this arcade take quarters, that would have been a small fortune when they were made.

The Ludlow Ghost Town

Trinidad, Colorado

Ludlow Massacre Site

The scene of one of the darkest moments in American labor history has been left essentially untouched since the tragedy.

Gold Camp Road Tunnels

Colorado Springs, Colorado

Old Gold Camp Road Tunnels

The haunted reputation of these abandoned Colorado train tunnels is probably not helped by the terrifying spiked fence.

Looking up the pass. The trestle seems a lot narrower than it is.

Winter Park, Colorado

Devil's Slide Trestles

These decaying bridges 1,000 feet high are a reminder of the skill it took to cross the Colorado Rockies by rail.

Two mile-high markers.

Mack, Colorado

This interpretive path lets you get up close and personal with dinosaur bones.

Mount Elbert reflecting in Twin Lakes

Buena Vista, Colorado

Mount Elbert

At the tallest peak in Colorado, an electrifying mix of thin air, lightning, and rivalry.

Opening of the cave.

In the middle of a suburban Denver neighborhood is a cave that once provided solace for a prominent Ute chief and his family.

The Nevadaville Masonic Lodge, built in 1879.

Central City, Colorado

Nevadaville Ghost Town

This deserted Gold Rush town is home to a Masonic lodge that, strangely enough, still holds meetings.

Night sky over the Ashcroft Hotel

Aspen, Colorado

Ashcroft Townsite

Silver in the hills led to the speedy creation of this boom town and a lack of it saw the town abandoned nearly as quickly.

The highest paved road in North America winds its way up Mount Blue Sky in Colorado to an altitude of 14,130 feet above sea level.

Maroon Bells

Aspen, Colorado

Maroon Bells

Despite being one of the most photographed vistas in the Rockies these twin peaks are rightfully known as the "Deadly Bells."

Royal Gorge Bridge

Cañon City, Colorado

Royal Gorge Bridge

The highest bridge in America was built for an almost unnervingly small amount of money.

Rainbow Falls

The largest self-built castle in the U.S., six decades in the making.
