This review is from: Discoveries America-Colorado (DVD)
I lead travel tours across the country about 3 times a year and was hoping this might be a nice intro to the beautiful state that is Colorado. It wasn't. They spent an exhorbitant amount of time on a sheep rodeo type event and barely touched on the state's real treasures. Save your money.

This review is from: Discoveries America-Colorado (DVD)
"Discoveries America-Colorado" is a nicely done 50-minute tourist informercial on the State of Colorado. This DVD doesn't even pretend to scratch the surface of all the things to see and do in Colorado, but it should provide the would-be visitor a good taste of what to expect.
The show opens up with a tour of the Rocky Mountains and especially Rocky Mountain National Park, with its many high mountains and spectacular views. Next is a visit to Pike's Peak by cog railroad. Just below Pike's Peak, on the edge of Colorado Springs, is the famous Garden of the Gods, unique rock formations in their own park. The show takes quick turns through Denver and the outdoor recreation possibilities at Winterpark and Cripple Creek. The narrative shows down for a fascinating look at the sheep dog championships in Meeker, before moving on to Durango for its Railroad festival. There is an extended tour, with Park Rangers, through Mesa Verde's ancient cliff dwellings, then it's on to fishing and rafting on the exciting rapids of the Gunnison River. The voice-over narrative keeps the viewer oriented without drowning out the spectacular scenery, and the show includes comments by locals and visitors. The effect, hopefully, is motivate folks to consider visiting Colorado. To that potential audience, this DVD is highly recommended.
