Mountain Biking THE BEST OF COLORADO 1 he old and the new, the rustic and the sophisticated, the wild and the refined—all of these experiences exist Tpractically side by side in Colorado, amid what is argu- ably the most breathtaking mountain scenery in America. Colorado’s booming cities—Boulder, Colorado Springs, and Denver—and its admittedly somewhat glitzy resorts—especially Vail and Aspen—offer much of the comfort and culture of New York or Los Angeles but at a slower, more relaxed pace. Throughout the state, you’ll also find testa- ments to another time, when life was simpler but rougher and only the strong survived: historic Victorian mansions, working turn-of-the-20th- century steam trains, thousand-year-old adobe-and-stone villages, and authentic Old West towns complete with false-fronted saloons and dusty streets. Enos Mills, an early-20th-century environmentalist and one of the driv- ing forces behind the creation of Rocky Mountain National Park, said that knowledge of nature is the basis of wisdom. So climb on a horse or moun- tain bike, take a hike or a raft trip—or simply sit back and gaze at the mountains. (Atop Pikes Peak, you’ll see what inspired Katharine Lee Bates to pen the lyrics to “America the Beautiful.”) Whatever you do, though, don’t stay indoors. Colorado truly comes alive for those who ven- ture outdoors—to the towering Rocky Mountains, the western canyons, or the broad eastern plains. The following are what I consider Colorado’s best experiences—high- lights that will help you begin planning your trip. THE best SKI RESORTS Large Resorts W Aspen: Not only does Aspen have predictably superior ski terrain rang- ing fromCOPYRIGHTED some of the most expert runs in Colorado MATERIAL to what Ski maga- zine has called the best mountain in America for beginners (Buttermilk), but it’s also one of the most fun, genuinely historic ski towns in Colo- rado. Although it might come off at first as somewhat glitzy and cer- tainly expensive, Aspen is a real town, with longtime, year-round residents and a history that goes beyond the slopes. See chapter 11. W Breckenridge: The lure of Breckenridge lies in its fabulous trails for skiers of all abilities, its location in an old gold-prospecting settlement, and its abundance of ski-in/ski-out lodging. It’s also less expensive than 004_9780470887684-ch01.indd4_9780470887684-ch01.indd 1 11/12/11/12/11 33:43:43 PMPM 1 Colorado 0 50 mi LLaramiearamie CHEYENNE Sidney Ogallala 0 50 km WWYOMINGY O M I N G 230 Julesburg .

Lipman Pamphlet to accompany Geologic Investigations Series I–2799 dacite Ceobolla Creek Tuff Nelson Mountain Tuff, rhyolite Rat Creek Tuff, dacite Cebolla Creek Tuff Rat Creek Tuff, rhyolite Wheeler Geologic Monument (Half Moon Pass quadrangle) provides exceptional exposures of three outflow tuff sheets erupted from the San Luis caldera complex. Lowest sheet is Rat Creek Tuff, which is nonwelded throughout but grades upward from light-tan rhyolite (~74% SiO2) into pale brown dacite (~66% SiO2) that contains sparse dark-brown andesitic scoria. Distinctive hornblende-rich middle Cebolla Creek Tuff contains basal surge beds, overlain by vitrophyre of uniform mafic dacite that becomes less welded upward. Uppermost Nelson Mountain Tuff consists of nonwelded to weakly welded, crystal-poor rhyolite, which grades upward to a densely welded caprock of crystal-rich dacite (~68% SiO2). White arrows show contacts between outflow units. 2006 U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey CONTENTS Geologic setting . 1 Volcanism . 1 Structure . 2 Methods of study . 3 Description of map units . 4 Surficial deposits . 4 Glacial deposits . 4 Postcaldera volcanic rocks . 4 Hinsdale Formation . 4 Los Pinos Formation . 5 Oligocene volcanic rocks . 5 Rocks of the Creede Caldera cycle . 5 Creede Formation . 5 Fisher Dacite . 5 Snowshoe Mountain Tuff . 6 Rocks of the San Luis caldera complex . 7 Rocks of the Nelson Mountain caldera cycle . 7 Rocks of the Cebolla Creek caldera cycle . 9 Rocks of the Rat Creek caldera cycle . 10 Lava flows premonitory(?) to San Luis caldera complex . .11 Rocks of the South River caldera cycle .

  • Emergency Regulations for Chapter W-0, Chapter W-2, and Chapter W-5 DATE: March 28, 2020
    1313 Sherman St, Room 111 Denver, CO 80203 P 303.866.3203 TO: Members of the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission FROM: Krista Heiner, Regulations Manager RE: Emergency Regulations for Chapter W-0, Chapter W-2, and Chapter W-5 DATE: March 28, 2020 Emergency regulatory changes for Chapter W-0 - "General Provisions" - 2 CCR 406-0, Chapter W-2 - "Big Game" - 2 CCR 406-2, and Chapter W-5 - "Small Game - Migratory Birds" - 2 CCR 406-5 are summarized below. Redline versions of these proposed emergency regulatory changes are included. If there are questions about the agenda items below, or if additional information is needed, please feel free to contact me at 303-866-3203 x4609. o Agenda Item 4: Chapter W-2 - “Big Game” - 2 CCR 406-2: Open for consideration of emergency regulations necessary to change the Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep quota for the 2020 rifle season in S-9 [Sangre de Cristo, SMS09O1R] from 10 to 8 for residents and from 0 to 2 for nonresidents. In January 2020, the Commission adopted rules to implement 2020 bighorn sheep license numbers. Subsequent to the adoption of the 2020 bighorn sheep license numbers, the Division identified an error that required administrative cleanup. A correction has been made to the regulations. These changes in no way alter the overall intent of the big game season structure as previously approved by the Parks and Wildlife Commission or the big game season regulations adopted by the Commission in January of 2020. Absent the emergency rules, the Division would be unable to run the bighorn sheep limited license drawing, and it is important to make this change prior to the drawing, which is scheduled for April 23, 2020.
