Springtime has arrived in Colorado!

My garden has just started peaking out of the dirt, the trees are starting to bud leaves and their flowers will burst in a few weeks. This is one on my favorite events in spring, not unlike when Colorado turns gold in fall. When I look at my garden, I see spring; when my gaze reaches the mountains that are Colorado's backdrop, I see snow-white peaks that beckon me to plan my family's first warm weather adventure in Colorado.

Springtime in Colorado's Rockies is a wild adventure! Riding over old train track routes on an ATV while viewing the snow-capped mountains or Jeeping the steep inclines watching out for wildlife as deer and elk move to their summer homes, this is the adrenaline rush that you are looking for after your winter hibernation. The skies are blue, the sun is bright, the air is crisp, and the snow is melting, filling the Arkansas and Colorado Rivers with fresh Colorado run-off and creating some of the funnest water activities on earth: whitewater rafting and fly-fishing!
