Colorado
With over 20 million acres of public land and 300 days of sunshine a year, Colorado attracts recreationists from around the world. If it's hiking, fishing, camping and solitude you're after, there are over 40 wilderness areas to explore. If it's family camping, rafting, skiing or hot springing you enjoy, or maybe just scenic driving through one of the three national parks or many national forests, Colorado is a year-round destination. Colorado's roots stem from Native Americans, Spanish explorers, pioneers, miners, cowboys and railroaders, and these roots are evident today in the many museums, exhibits and attractions across the state.
