These are the best short documentaries! They’re made so well, that even if it’s subject is something I’m not too interested in, i am enthralled throughout the entire program. We’re super lucky to have the people making these be so knowledgeable and passionate about the History of Colorado. Keep them coming RMPBS!
I've enjoyed this Colorado Experience many times. The Denver Mountain Park's Book, 100 Years of the Magnificent Dream by Wendy Rex-Atzet, Sally L. White, and Erika D. Walker with wonderful photography by Colorado's own photographer John Fielder, is a must for coffee tables, libraries, and as a gift to our young and for every dreamer who visits Colorado and says, like I did in 1960, "One day I will live in Colorado!"
When I was growing up, it was so nice. Then it tripled in size. Road work stopped, including I-70. The "new" residents brought with them an unfriendliness and anger especially when driving. People drive with a vengeance. The neighborhood stopped being a neighborhood and was just a collection of houses where people no longer knew each other. I'm now a Colorado refugee living in a small Nevada town. I visit family in Colorado often and have never regretted leaving although I miss the Colorado that is gone forever.
@@TheBandit7613 I lived in Colorado for a few years and left in 2006, but I go back at least once a year to visit. Loveland and Fort Collins have basically doubled in size since I left and the urban sprawl is just nuts! I still love Colorado, but I doubt I'll ever move back. Cheers!
Thanks so much for putting this together.

Amazingly beautiful
Donate to your local PBS station. Even a few dollars will keep these fantastic shows accessible to everyone.
I visited the Mt. Evans Crest house around 2006. Apparently it has been rebuilt since this film was made...
Great documentary but the editor over used the same fake bird noise :/
I live in boulder and think that it’s not just Denver
Even though I despise Denver and the Front Range - thank you so much for this series.
