Once in awhile I get asked about out lying areas around Pueblo. First time visitors will often remark that Pueblo has few trees and the mountains are to far away. Depending on your perspective, this is true.
I live near Canon City and appreciate how lovely it is. It is slightly hilly and does get snow on occasion. It’s called the Banana Belt of the Rockies. Fremont county tends to get all four seasons. 
Yes, it has 15 prisons including the Super Max in Florence. And that is a big part of what Fremont county is, but that’s not all it is.
Please come visit Bishops Castle, the Royal Gorge Bridge, Dinosaur Museum, the Arkansas River, antique and art galleries and so much more.
Visit me and I'll make you some pumpkins soup from scratch, I even grow the pumpkins!
