Yee-haw! It's time for the Pikes Peak or Bust Rodeo, a long-standing Colorado Springs tradition. The western celebration kicks off with a downtown parade and rounds up with the nation's finest cowboys and cowgirls competing in non-stop rodeo action from bull riding to barrel racing.
There's something brewing at Phantom Canyon Brewing Co., located in the historic Cheyenne Building in downtown Colorado Springs. Spend a night out with friends tasting the brewmaster's finest ales that impress even the most discriminating beer connoisseurs and play billiards in the upstairs Billiard Hall awarded "Best Place to Shoot Pool".
Enjoy outdoor beauty as you bask in the mist of cascading waterfalls at The Broadmoor Seven Falls in Colorado Springs. Challenge your physical endurance and climb the 184 steps along the mountainside, up to the magnificent platform to watch the falls tumble 181 feet down its solid granite cliffside. Afterwards treat yourself to the Ponderosa Cafe to refuel and Main Curio Shop for memorable souvenirs.
