A single row can hide a real spread — open a month to see it region by region.
Front Range
- Denver Thin air, hard sun, and a habit of trading seasons back and forth inside a single afternoon.
- Colorado Springs A dry, sun-hammered shelf at the foot of a mountain big enough to write its own weather.
The High Rockies
- Aspen A high valley town whose year runs on the lift schedule, with long quiet stretches built in between.
Southwest Colorado
- Durango A high desert river town at the edge of the San Juans, where the days swing wide and the sun is the loudest thing in the sky.
