Description

The Best of Denver and the Rockies begins with an introduction to the Mile High City, then it moves quickly to the authors' favorite things. Lists are embellished with background material and include their picks for the Ten Best tourist attractions, hidden locations, restaurants, hotels, B&B inns, watering holes, walks, and bike routes. A spicy unauthorized history of Denver's colorful past is included along with an exploration of the Rockies North (Boulder and Rocky Mountain National Park), the Rockies West (winter-summer resorts around the Vail Valley), and the Rockies South (Colorado Springs, Manitou Springs, and Pikes Peak).
