Might want to avoid the Crossbar Hilton at the end of Main Street. Better accommodations are available elsewhere. Yup, there are mountains just on the edge of town. Noted the duck crossing on 4th Street; haven't seen one of those since Memphis. Prison town, with some tourist traps; looks pretty good overall.
Canon city was featured in the first episode of ER season 12. Great drive here in the downtown area of Canon city my friend
Royal Gorge is right there. The Arkansas River starts not far away. That tramway ride is a bit of fun.
Lived here from 87 to 89. Was travelling through same time as you...on my way to KC next. I lived very close to Myrtle Ave. On Sherman Ave.

Yeah prisons are a big industry in this part of Colorado.
