Colorado surprised me most in the places I hadn’t planned for—where the map faded and wonder filled in the rest. A ghost town half-swallowed by time, a mountaintop yurt lit by lantern glow, a canyon trail with no one else in sight. I remember standing in that stillness and thinking, “This isn’t just beautiful—it’s otherworldly.”
What stayed with me weren’t the grand views, but the unexpected ones: soaking in a hot spring with snow falling softly overhead, finding wild raspberries on a forgotten trail, stumbling into a mountain festival where strangers handed me warm pie and called me friend. I moved through mining towns, alpine lakes, and quiet corners where stories still echo—and I left feeling wide open, like the land had gently rewired me.
