Colorado Springs is located between the front range of the Rocky Mountains and the Great Plains.
Initially, the plains are not as breath takingly beautiful or as awe inspiring as the Rocky Mountains, Pikes Peak or Garden of the Gods.
(The picture above is of the Fountain Valley School, a private college preparatory school founded in 1929 that lies south east of Colorado Springs. The school has both an English and Western equestrian program. The school is nestled in the trees. Their horse facilities are VERY nice. )
Yet when the sun goes down, the sky that can be seen from the Great Plains steals the show.
The nice thing about Colorado Springs is that you can enjoy both the mountains, the city and the plains....all in the same day.
Colorado Springs: See It. Experience It. Live It.
