Exploring our beautiful state

My wife and I want to really experience Colorado's natural beauty next year, so we put together a list of one outdoor thing per month. Trying to hit different parts of the state and different seasons.

  • Jan – Ski, ride, or sled a mountain
  • Feb – Soak in a natural hot springs (Maybe Glenwood or Ouray)
  • Mar – Visit a national park or monument (Maybe Great Sand Dunes)
  • Apr – Watch wildlife at a designated viewing site (Maybe Monte Vista Crane Festival)
  • May – Float a Colorado river
  • Jun – Get out on a lake (lots to choose from - thinking Grand Lake or Redfeather)
  • Jul – Climb a fourteener
  • Aug – Go camping
  • Sep – Hike a section of the Colorado Trail
  • Oct – Fish or hunt
  • Nov – Visit a state park
  • Dec – Visit a mountain town

Mainly want to know what obvious Colorado thing we left off entirely. The goal is to see the natural beauty across each month.

Kids are all younger than 6, but they don't have to join us for every single month.

Thanks!

First trip. First canoe.

Officially a canoe owner!! Been pondering and eyeing them and kayaks for the past month.

We rented a canoe from our local lake and my 2 young girls loved it!

I just picked it up today and tomorrow we're going to test it out on some water near us!
