About Colorado
The story of Centennial State
Colorado owns 58 peaks above 14,000 feet, the headwaters of the Colorado River, and everything from red-rock canyons to alpine tundra.
Silver and gold rushes built mountain towns like Leadville and Cripple Creek, and Colorado became the first state to grant women the vote by popular referendum in 1893.
Mountain-town culture runs on flannel, powder days, craft beer, and 300 days of sunshine — plus a booming Denver food and music scene.
Food. Green chile smothered on everything, Palisade peaches, Rocky Mountain oysters, and more craft breweries per capita than almost any state.
Sports. Broncos, Nuggets, Avalanche, and Rockies keep Denver loud year-round — plus a ski culture that rivals the Alps.
Outdoors. Ski Aspen or Vail, climb a fourteener, mountain bike Fruita, or raft the Arkansas River.
Economy. Aerospace, tech in Boulder, energy, tourism, and cannabis all fuel one of the fastest-growing economies in the Mountain West.
Landmarks. Visitors flock to Rocky Mountain NP, Garden of the Gods, Maroon Bells, Great Sand Dunes, Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
Fun fact. Colorado is the highest state in the country — its lowest point is still higher than the highest point of 18 other states.

Whether you were born here, went to school here, or fell in love with Colorado on a road trip, wearing a piece of it keeps that connection alive. Ski Aspen or Vail, climb a fourteener, mountain bike Fruita, or raft the Arkansas River.
