| Welcome to Colorado! Colorado's landscapes range from rugged, snow-crested peaks to dramatic canyons, towering sand dunes to endless expanses of rolling prairies. The state offers thousands of miles of trails in pristine forests, glacier cut valleys and roaring rivers. Colorado also offers opportunities for backcountry camping, mountain biking, and rounds of championship golf. Visit one of Colorado's 222 state wildlife areas or ride the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, which continues to provide year round train service operating a historical train with rolling stock indigenous to the line. |

 | Colorado adopted the flag in 1911. It consists of three alternate stripes of equal width and at right angles to the staff, the two outer stripes to be blue of the same color as in the blue field of the national flag and the middle stripe to be white. The flag bears a circular red C, of the same color as the red in the national flag of the United States. Completely filling the open space inside the letter C is a golden disk. Attached to the flag is a cord of gold and silver, intertwined, with tassels, one of gold and one of silver. |
