Not mentioning that both Steamboat and Telluride have great ski areas is pretty huge.

Thanks for including Idaho Springs and Georgetown! I lived in Idaho Springs back in the early 2000s and still love it.

Yeah, they are definitely unique towns that everyone drives by because of the interstate

All my favorite places. Headed back to Marble in June! I'd add Westcliffe, super laid back and surrounded by great hiking.

Westcliff! I pretty much forgot about that town, I even drove through it not long ago. I'll have to add it.

Great Vid, but I would recommend stopping at Redstone on the way up to Marble. Redstone is tiny, but has a lot of cool shops, a river that runs thru it, and an expecially good pizza restaurant -- Propaganda Pie! Not sure the extra miles up to Marble is necessary.

Adding in transit (local/district)/common transportation (Bustang family) to the recommendations would get me to subscribe AND share these videos with my large group of car-free friends and advocates!

Well, funny, you should say that. I have about 100 videos in the making right now, and one of them is all the different ways to travel in Colorado I will go over in detail how and the best time and way to use each one. I have personally gotten to wherever I need with a combo of Bustang, hitchhiking, and hiking. This video will probably be pretty far in the future though

@@RyksVideos so all these without a personal car? That’s amazing! I’d suggest that video being a priority because NO ONE else is producing a video like that-likely to get much greater audience than another Best of video-IMHO. I look forward to it whenever it comes out!

I have used a car to get to the places I filmed here, but I have also used Bustang and hitchhiking to get around Colorado a lot. I am a big fan of hitchhiking and use it in a lot of places. I think it is one of the more fun ways for transportion around and have even used it to get around the Middle East. Another thing that I'm excited about is the arrival of ride share apps in the USA, pretty much a digital way to hitchhike. I have heard that apps like that (bla bla car) have been used in Europe for a long time and are a very efficient way to get around, it would be nice if it would take off here, but I think there are some laws lobbied by Uber that prevent apps like that from taking off here.

Are there 2 marbles? I love the area around marble, but the town is pretty much residential with almost nothing else there.

No just one, but there is a restaurant and a few tourist shops there.

Missed the word "Mountain" in the title. So, there aren't any beautiful towns outside of the mountains?

@RyksVideos Ай бұрын

Not really, most of the small towns out of the mountain are dying because they don't have the tourism to support them. I will be making a video about towns like that in the future

@altitudeiseverything3163 4 күн бұрын

He’s correct. There really aren’t many small towns down below noteworthy enough to be worth *visiting,* though I’m sure there are some that are quite nice to live in. Golden, a small-ish town just west of Denver, has a couple of points of interest, as does nearby Morrison, but generally the most interesting and beautiful small towns are in the mountains.
