Best For: Summiting a '14er
Local's Tips:
30 miles east of Colorado Springs, featuring chasms, spires, hoodoos, and sculpted walls carved out of brightly colored clay deposits – layers of snowy white, golden yellow, rose pink and purplish mauve. Native Americans used the deposits for paints and pottery, and settlers later mined the clay to make bricks.
Best For: Discovering A Well Kept Secret
Local's Tip: Make sure you have good directions because you cannot see the park very well from the road - the rock formations are sunk down into the hillside out on the prairie. You can't even see the rock formations from the park's parking lot!
