Colorado is home to four national parks. Rocky Mountain National Park is the most visited, but Mesa Verde, the Black Canyon of the Gunnison, and Great Sand Dunes are also great, and drastically different! Pikes Peak is the tallest of many “fourteeners” – mountain peaks over 14,000 feet in elevation. There are approximately 96 “fourteeners” in the United States, and over half are in Colorado.
We’re Matt and Cheryl, and we’re in the Rockies. :) We are both teachers. Cheryl teaches special ed, and Matt teaches American history. We love the American West and the national parks. We want to help you have a great vacation on your next trip to the Rockies.
