- The Manitou Springs area was sacred among the Sun Mountain Utes for it's natural carbonated mineral springs and unique geographic features. Americans also thought it was amazing, turning it into a successful holistic health community in 1872. Since then Manitou Springs has become an international travel destination with a vibrant downtown area and dozens of famous attractions nearby including Pikes Peak, Cave of the Winds and the Manitou Incline among others.
Ski Lodge was created to publicly document our travels around Colorado. Started to simply get everyone out of the house, it has turned into a vast collection of history, photography and general information.
*A historical mistake was discovered at 0:58 as I stated the Spanish never passed through Ute Canyon, when in fact Juan Bautista de Anza travelled east along Fountain Creek in 1779 during his attack on Comanche Chief Cuerno Verde.

Love the videos!
We love living in Manitou!
Nice video, lived there in 1993. Some great memories.
Nice place, visited Colorado back in 1968 while stationed at Fort Carson, beautiful country back then. Pikes Peak, Manito Springs Garden of the Gods.
I did the incline on a 90* day once. That was a bad idea :). Another great video, Ski Lodge.
Thanks for the continued support!
Great travel video. I always like the abundance of locally owned businesses, such as the arcades, gift shops and restaurants. Plus, it’s a very walkable town off tourist season.
Always felt it had a little bit of everything
We headed 24 east to limon and visited painted mines. 😊
another great video, thanks! i especially liked the history segment at the start.
lol, i _can't wait_ for the upcoming pueblo video; i lived there for 2 years (well, pueblo west, i'm just sayin') and am curious of your findings. 🤣👍
Oh, I got a lot to say about Pueblo
I was there a couple years ago. The day I was there (early June) was WAY to crowded for me. Didn't get out of car or stop anywhere. So, just drove to Garden of the Gods for a longer stay there. Would love to visit in a not so busy time.
