Led by local historian Neil Reynolds, who dresses in a long black cape and a top hat so as to resemble something out of an Edgar Allen Poe short story, this tour creeps through Leadville's famed Evergreen Cemetery. The tour pauses before gravestones as Reynolds dispenses tales about some of those who are buried, including John W. Booth, the alleged cousin of Lincoln's assassin, John Wilkes Booth. Keep a keen eye out for the strange blue lights that haunt the cemetery, or for the bronze elk statue whose head has been reported to turn. Admission is USD10.

Breckenridge Outdoor Education Center, a non-profit organization, aims to help those with disabilities experience the wilderness through a series of inspiring and valuable outdoor programs. A climbing wall, rafts, and canoes, cabins and teepees, the center has many other resources for outdoor adventure. Varying seasonal activities like Alpine and Nordic skiing, whitewater rafting, and team and leadership development courses create lasting impressions on the youth. This is a great space where the youth can get in touch with themselves and nature.

One of the 10 districts of the ski town of Vail, Vail Village is the melting pot for all art and cultural activities. The Colorado Ski Museum is set here and draws in scores of tourists especially during summer. Gore Creek Drive and the bustling Bridge Street are 2 main streets which host local and national festivals all year around, including the much awaited Oktoberfest. Vail Village is much like a mini art village with street musicians, all night long street parties, food stands and cultural activities taking place at some point of time or the other.

Set against pine-clad hills, Country Boy Mine offers guests a sneak peak into the life of 18th-century pioneers by taking them on a series of fun-filled tours. Start the day by embarking on an underground mining adventure where you can descend 1,000 feet into the mine and discover for yourself the history of Colorado mining. Next, try panning for gold in Eureka Creek. You can also scavenge for hidden treasure or go on a sleigh ride that will take you through the Ten Mile Mountain Range. Other activities to enjoy here include sledding and snowshoeing.

Snow Caps Sled Dogs is a family run business first opened in 1984. They call about 150 huskies part of the family, and every year is it possible to visit the little puppies in their kennel - you can even adopt a husky and take it home with you. During the winter season the dogs pull sleds and during the summer they provide scooter tours.

While this museum focuses mainly on the sports Colorado influences, it also, in many ways, details the history of skiing itself. Its shelves and walls are packed with more than 1,500 photos and artifacts touching upon Olympic and World Cup events, Colorado's famed 10th Mountain Division, and even the recent evolution of snowboarding. Gazing at photos of the Vail Valley when it was nothing but a sheep farm in the late 1950s will make you yearn for the gift of foresight.
