Over the last few weeks, we have gotten a pretty good taste of what winter has in store for Colorado–but don’t let the ice and cold get you down! There are lots of exciting things to look forward to, including:
- First and foremost, the ice and snow make Colorado look like a winter wonderland.

- …the Denver Zoo looks like this…
