The Best Hidden Towns in Colorado

The Best Hidden Towns in Colorado

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

Colorado NFT’s are here https://opensea.io/collection/colorado-scenery

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.

    If its hidden, how come i can see it?

    People: I want all the privacy of no one living here and no traffic near me with the added benefit of taxes, business, employment, , better healthcare and better infrastructure. You people send us money, get no benefits and make my life better here and you stay there where you are at.

    The best hidden town in Colorado is a great town. I guess it’s so hidden that not even this video knows it? Or maybe they don’t think its one of the best (but it is). I’m not going to say the name, but its in the san juan mountains, and it is wonderful. I think if people know this town, I probably know them. If you know which town I’m talking about, yay!

    There are no ‘hidden towns’ in Colorado left. Every single town is overrun with eastern transplants, southern Californians , and Texasns! Colorado culture has been supplanted by their greed cultures, native Coloradoans are leaving in droves, this is not right. ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

    I’ve been to those places over the years and Leadville actually has information in town claiming it to be the highest incorporated city in lower 48. I’m not saying Alma isn’t. Just saying Leadville states differently.

    We’re you in hurry editing this video?
    By the time you mentioned the worlds largest fork, it was gone. Didn’t even see it. This was shown in a college movie course on what not to do while editing a film.

    Creede sucks. Tell your friends

  17. Aunt Itchy Reads Tells you a story on July 11, 2023 at 2:03 pm

    Very boring. I’ll be better off watching a video about cardboard boxes. I was not even engaged.

  18. Melyssa Anne Ermi-Salazar on July 11, 2023 at 2:04 pm

    Colorado is not a great place to live. NOPE.

  19. Michele on July 11, 2023 at 2:05 pm

    Put a map up to show where they are!

  20. Ryan on July 11, 2023 at 2:06 pm

    Oh btw this state sux donโ€™t move here

  21. Sookie on July 11, 2023 at 2:07 pm

    I lived there. Too expensive and too much snow. I lived in isolated towns and difficult to go anywhere.

  22. Biruta M. Eilers on July 11, 2023 at 2:08 pm

    Get rid of Bobart

  23. Jeanette Cameron on July 11, 2023 at 2:10 pm

    Being a native I am very lucky to have been able to live and play in Aspen, T-ride, Steamboat, Durango, Silverton decades ago before outlanders took over.

    That funky beat though

  26. TOAST on July 11, 2023 at 2:12 pm

    What about Colorado City?

  27. B Buescher on July 11, 2023 at 2:15 pm

    Thanks for putting this video together. I am born and raised in Grand Junction Colorado. You got some good spots on the list.

    I also recommend Orvis hot springs outside of Ouray, if youโ€™re into Clothing optional places. You can add strawberry Hot Springs outside of steamboat as well.

    And finally if youโ€™re on the front range Evergreen and Morrison are two very cool little towns just outside of Denver.

  28. TVTV VTVT on July 11, 2023 at 2:18 pm

    Colorado used to be great. If you want to live in a place like Colorado was 50 years ago then there are two states I’d recommend, just not on YouTube lol

  29. Scotty Collins on July 11, 2023 at 2:19 pm

    Dude? Creed is where Frank James killed Bob Ford! The bar is still there!

  47. Glen Cole on July 11, 2023 at 2:39 pm

  48. Raven Skye on July 11, 2023 at 2:39 pm

    I’m in Oklahoma but I want to move to Colorado. What’s the best town to live in? I don’t want a huge city.

  49. Mustang Sally on July 11, 2023 at 2:40 pm

    Cripple Creek! Manitou Springs, Pagosa Springs, Pueblo.

  50. 1049berkeley on July 11, 2023 at 2:41 pm

    Buena Vista ? Maybe the mountains around it, but what a dump.
