I'm impressed with how many state parks are in Colorado...if in fact you're in a state park.
Are you in one of these parks? Arkansas Headwaters Recreation Area Barr Lake State Park Bonny Lake State Park Boyd Lake State Park Castlewood Canyon State Park Chatfield State Park Cherry Creek State Park Cheyenne Mountain State Park Crawford State Park Eldorado Canyon State Park Eleven Mile State Park Golden Gate Canyon State Park Harvey Gap State Park Highline Lake State Park Jackson Lake State Park James M. Robb - Colorado River State Park John Martin Reservoir State Park Lake Pueblo State Park Lathrop State Park Lone Mesa State Park Lory State Park Mancos State Park Mueller State Parks Navajo State Park North Sterling State Park Paonia State Park Pearl Lake State Park Ridgway State Park Rifle Falls State Park Rifle Gap State Park Roxborough State Park San Luis State Park Spinney Mountain State Park St. Vrain State Park Stagecoach State Park State Forest State Park Staunton State Park Steamboat Lake State Park Sweitzer Lake State Park Sylvan Lake State Park Trinidad Lake State Park Vega State Park Yampa River State Park |

According to wiki, which we know could be a bit marginal at times:
The four United States National Parks within the State of Colorado are: Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park near Montrose Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve near Mosca Mesa Verde National Park and UNESCO World Heritage Site near Cortez Rocky Mountain National Park near Estes Park and Grand Lake Or maybe you're at a national monument? ....unc, are you at one of these places? The six United States National Monuments in the State of Colorado are: Canyons of the Ancients National Monument near Cortez Colorado National Monument near Grand Junction and Fruita Dinosaur National Monument near Dinosaur Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument near Florissant Hovenweep National Monument near Cortez Yucca House National Monument near Cortez |

Sounds like a cool place. I should go someday. My only experience in Colorado is driving loaded semis through the state spending as little time stopping as possible.
OK go...

island?
ps: I am so happy I got rid of some kind of pernicious virus/trogan thing that was inhabiting my laptop for the last few days. It was like a war, with many battles, even had me scanning and manually deleting stuff in safe-mode against recommended procedures. But I finally won! No sign of that punk-ass piece of crap all day now. |
