The highest incorporated city in North America at 10,152 feet above sea level, Leadville is a small and charming burg nestled in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. Yes, it's cold.
Leadville boasts a grid of streets packed with colorful Victorian-era houses and incredible views of Mount Massive. The main drag's brick sidewalks are lined with mining-era "Main Street" establishments filled with history. Sure, it's not as wealthy as Aspen, or as phony as Vail, or as prettied up as Breckenridge, but Leadville is cuter and has 10x the character of all.
It's hardcore. It's got 100-mile foot and bike races in the summer and 142 inches of snow in the winter. It's the home of Melanzana, the most bang-for-your-buck, warm fleece you've ever purchased. It's the home of High Mountain Pies, the best damn pizzeria in the Colorado Rockies. It's the home of folks who aren't afraid to live in a different type of paradise. It's both an environmental catastrophe and an environmental miracle. Want to see people standing on street corners with signs saying that black lives matter in small-town America? Come to Leadville.
It's rough around the edges, yet simultaneously a diamond. The whole town is just a vibe. Don't gentrify it too hard, now.

Once a place to strike it rich at the mines, people now go to Leadville to enjoy the outdoor spaces and historic charm.

A small city in Montana. Bozeman needs no definition, because anyone who knows Bozeman knows what's up.
A great town, views of high peaks all around, skiing 15 minutes away. Yellowstone and Big Sky an hour away. Endless outdoor opportunities right in your back yard. All with a pretty good university - Montana State - to boot.
See legit.

You can have your parties in New York, I'll be standing on top of a mountain with a view of the world. Or I'll be hitting up awesome terrain over at Bridger. Hah! You wish you lived in Bozeman.

A group sexual event for males where 4 holes are cut into a pumpkin and fucked at once. The number of holes may span from a minimum of 3 to a maximum of 5, with 4 being the most comfortable. Afterward, the guy who finished last must carve the pumpkin into a jack-o'-lantern for display from his residence. This event is popular in southwest Colorado during autumn.
The Texan tourists rolled into town on their rental ATVs, unsuspecting of the upcoming weekend's festivities. Upon the sighting of a new jack-o'-lantern outside their motel door a couple days later, one of their wives excitedly questioned. The Texan man said, "Well darn tootin', Beatrice, I won that there at the Lake City Log Jam. Just a good ol' night out with the boys!"

A very awesome place located in Douglas County, Colorado between Denver and Colorado Springs. It is bisected by Interstate 25 and is home to around 50,000 people. Castle Rock is an extremely nice and beautiful place to live since it is located in the hills directly adjacent to Colorado's high mountain ranges. The downtown is historic, extremely well-kept and very charming and nice. Even better is the rock-capped butte (The "Castle Rock") that rises from the northeast side of downtown. In the winter, a star is lighted at night atop "The Rock."
It often snows more than in Denver and Colorado Springs and is a bit cooler in summer due to the higher elevation, and it is also quite windy year-round but the wind is only a small negative aspect when compared to the numerous positives.
Many residents, specifically teenagers, complain endlessly that there's "nothing to do" in Castle Rock because it's "boring." Let me tell you, Castle Rock is only boring if you make it boring. Hiking up the rock and taking in the view never gets old. Sure, there isn't much to do as far as man-made entertainment, but all that is only a 20-minute drive north to Lone Tree. For stuff do do, get off your lazy ass and explore the Colorado wilderness that is your backyard because you're lucky to have it compared to someone who lives in a REAL boring place like Kansas.
I love Castle Rock!

Person from Aurora: Man, I wish I lived in Castle Rock. It's so flat and dull on the plains. You can actually see the mountains from Castle Rock!

A major interstate in the western United States running from Interstate 10 in Las Cruces, New Mexico to Interstate 90 in Buffalo, Wyoming. It passes through 3 states; New Mexico, Colorado, and Wyoming, as well as passes through the cities of Las Cruces, Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Pueblo, Colorado Springs, Denver, Fort Collins, Cheyenne, and Casper.
The portion of the freeway through Colorado is heavily urbanized from Pueblo to Fort Collins and is known as the "Front Range Urban Corridor," which is home to most of Colorado's 5 million people.
The entire length of Interstate 25 is rather scenic, especially the Colorado portion and parts of the roadway through northern New Mexico.

Man, I need to get to Albuquerque from Denver quickly. I know, I'll take Interstate 25, get there fast and be able to look at awesome mountains the whole way!
