This one of the greatest places I visited. This is a city park in Manitou Springs just below Pike's Peak. They have a really great visitor's center and entrance is free! After the rude behavior of one of the Colorado State Park Rangers, it was really refreshing to enter a park you didn't feel intimidated wandering through. The nuances of the Navajo sandstone sculptures are not to be missed.
