What makes it stand out:  Glenwood Springs is a classic example of "close to home, 
out of mind."  It appeals to all ages, no matter what your threshold for excitement 
is....with options as sedate as shopping in the historic downtown and as wild 
as zip-lining and whitewater rafting.

Not to miss:  The town's outdoor hot springs pool.  A popular, year-round gathering spot since the late 19th century, the larger pool is maintained at 90 degrees while the smaller 
version is kept at 104 degrees.

Biggest Surprise:  Tandem paragliding through the Rockies.  "I assumed paragliding was only for athletes and adrenaline junkies, but it proved to be a thrilling - and serene - experience."
