City advice

Getting around

Roads made simpler

we have a unique road mapping system here. Examples are 31 1/2 Road or B 1/2 Road. The numbering system is based on the miles from the Utah border. therefore 31 1/2 Road is 31 1/2 miles from the Utah border. A thru Z Roads are exactly a mile apart with the fractions of the miles in. North Avenue is one of the Main througfares in town. 12th Street turns into Horizon Drive which leads to the Airport.
What to pack

Bring a coat!

Always be prepared for inclement weather in Colorado. We can have some pretty wild temperature swings especially in the early Spring and late fall.
What to pack

plenty of hiking and biking trails. bring plenty of water with you. we do have a dry climate and we wouldn't want you dehydrated!
What to pack

Bring a bike

plenty of biking trails nearby like the Old Spanish Trail.
