In the best hidden towns in Colorado we go off the tourist path to find some unique and fun towns to visit and with little tourist crowds.
Check out my website to get access to amazing maps with all my favorite and secret places in Colorado here www.ryksvideo.com/colorado-map
Check out some beautiful prints I have captured from Colorado and around the world here

Colorado NFT's are here opensea.io/collection/colorad...
Gear I use for backpacking and filming is mostly purchased from craigslist boulder and thrift stores. I shop in these areas for outdoor gear because the people in this area update their gear every year and have good money, so I try to find last years gear for cheap in areas like this.

Wow. The negative comments are astonishing! Face it gang, Colorado is not a secret and it hasn't been for decades. I can't claim to be a native but I lived there for 35 years and raised a family there. Yeah, the tourists may sometimes be a nuisance but they're paying the freight for an awful lot of you. I'm not begrudging the longing for the good old days but I also don't much get your selfishness either. Why should you get to enjoy the beauty and wildness of the state but not others? If it's so bothersome, move to Alaska. Thanks for the video Ryks.

I grew up in Northern California and now live in Texas. I miss the Sierra Nevada's so I started visiting Colorado which is amazing. I have been back there every year for my vacation for the last 5 years and I am always in awe of the beauty every time I go. If you are able to live in some of these area's mentioned you are truly fortunate. I read some of the comments below and well tourism is a double-edged sword for sure,..on the one hand many of these small communities get ALOT of thier revenue from people visiting their beautiful space However, .I get the animosity created out of living in a beautiful area and then suddenly you are either priced out or find yourself overwhelmed with tourists who don't have the same care and respect for your space.

@@RyksVideos once my endurance with the high altitude is top notch & solid for me, I would totally go with you. I wanna see & do some much exploring I just don't know anyone here really to go with, or they work 80+ hours a week. Denver area? Or other side of CO?

These towns are hardly hidden, bazillions of tourons every year and now they are being californicated. You're too late.

Don't forget Texans as well. Make me dislike spring and summer when they all flock here and clog up the roads also raise the cost of living in places like Durango.

Colorado was beautiful. Wonderful bike paths. Overrun with tourists in the places I visited. Do the locals get a break?

South Park is based off of the ghost town in Fairplay...

@mindyb1449 5 лет назад

Thank you!! Fairplay is decked out in Southpark stuff

@rollinrat4850 5 лет назад

Ghost town? We drove through Fairplay and camped up in the mountains nearby. I saw a lot of houses and people living there, even went in the store, but no ghost town. Where is it? Ive found quite a few ghost towns in the California and Nevada deserts and old mining sites in the Sierras. Exploring by 4wd, motorbikes or mountain bikes is lots of fun! Me and my friends have even found a little gold!

South Park is the name of the geographical area called South Park where Fairplay Colorado is located. There has never been a town called South Park here in Colorado. The creators of the show South Park came from Fairplay.

@BrianKrahmer 4 года назад

@@mtntopviking the creators were not from Fairplay. Trey is from Conifer, about 45 minutes to the east. I lived just outside of Fairplay, but sadly moved to Texas on the morning of 9/11

@mtntopviking 4 года назад

@@BrianKrahmer OK. I was mistaken about where you came from. Sorry. I was raised in Salida and traveled thru South Park many, many times. I hated it during the winter with the wind and sometimes blizzard conditions! I love the show, South Park!! Very well done!!

REDFEATHER LAKES. Lived there 4 years in the 90s. It is the most Northern town in Colorado if memory serves. I'm native of Chaffee county. I've lived all over my state. This was a really really good vid. It made me smile. Redfeather Lakes is more beautiful than any of these towns mentioned in my opinion.There are other towns like Redfeather, and Ouray too is awsome.

@RyksVideos 5 лет назад

To be honest, I have never heard if that town... I'll have to check it out

@@williamhenrich2051 Red Feather Cafe 👍 Beaver Meadows (the beave) Trout Lodge was Close to the Cafe. Tony Kozmizkie and Laura owned it for many years. One year Allan Saggart got Tony shittered and he drove off into Lake Ramona lolololol. There were no cops or Sheriff there at the time. It was some of the most times for me too. Butt Cheek Rock on Pipsissawah is cool.
