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.

    330k views. I guess words out

    The “Best” are not on this or any other list, and are known by true natives only, our lips are sealed. Welcome To Colorado, Now Go Home!

  4. darrenjoe watson on April 23, 2021 at 12:48 am

    Great videos

  5. Christopher Park on April 23, 2021 at 12:49 am

    i know a few of the towns in this video, Leadville being one.

  6. King Peregrin on April 23, 2021 at 12:52 am

    Southpark is a real town though

  7. DynamicPvp RaidsPvp on April 23, 2021 at 12:53 am

    alma has nothing to do with south park what so ever. that’s fairplay CO

  8. Julieanna D on April 23, 2021 at 12:53 am

    Love that music 🎶

  9. Roo on April 23, 2021 at 12:53 am

    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.

    Good, you left out Westcliffe.

  11. Kimber Brown on April 23, 2021 at 12:54 am

    I cannot believe how rude some of these comments are! It was a great video! Thank you for sharing some of the hidden gems in our beautiful country.

  12. curtis m on April 23, 2021 at 12:55 am

    That looks amazing you lucky sods !

  13. Raven Skye on April 23, 2021 at 12:56 am

    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.

  14. Kurt Johnson on April 23, 2021 at 12:56 am

  18. Phil Navy Veteran on April 23, 2021 at 1:00 am

    To stop the trash..anyone caught..immediate prison for 30 days..tied to a chain gang cleaning roads and towns of trash. Bet they never return..

  19. KW in CO on April 23, 2021 at 1:01 am

    Gateway doesn’t really count…it was fabricated to be a high end destination. The real town was just a wide spot in the road.

  20. Sweetcoins Andthings on April 23, 2021 at 1:02 am

    I’m from Colorado born and raised and one of my fave places is devil’s head just northwest of Colorado springs

  21. Sad Sandwich on April 23, 2021 at 1:03 am

    What about Gardner Colorado

  22. mark reese on April 23, 2021 at 1:03 am

    I go to creede every year

  23. fds fsdf on April 23, 2021 at 1:03 am

    The tiny paint socially frame because cause sequentially look absent a stiff siberian. possible, outrageous sandwich

  24. Rick J on April 23, 2021 at 1:06 am

    Since the locals call it Buna vista instead of Bwaina vista, why don’t they call Pueblo, Pewblo?

  25. Colb J Allen on April 23, 2021 at 1:06 am

    Not so hidden now

  26. Gchiltz on April 23, 2021 at 1:07 am

    He’s right about Buena vista I’m born and raised but we have enough tourists as it is and we all hate them

  27. M's B on April 23, 2021 at 1:12 am

    Bruh the best one is the mountain town

  28. Tolerance Respect Peace on April 23, 2021 at 1:13 am

    Nice video…🎶♥️👍

  29. Michael Ambrosano on April 23, 2021 at 1:15 am

    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.

  30. Eileen Stack on April 23, 2021 at 1:17 am

    Wow I want to see 🙋‍♀️🇮🇪👍❤️

  31. Camden Burke on April 23, 2021 at 1:18 am

    You had the opportunity to make the video 4:20 long and it never happened

  32. Imelinda Cavazos on April 23, 2021 at 1:20 am

    How do you think the Native tribes felt….

  33. Daniel Johnson on April 23, 2021 at 1:21 am

    😇

  34. Robert Trout on April 23, 2021 at 1:22 am

    Dunton 😎👍

  35. Bill Collins on April 23, 2021 at 1:22 am

    I’m sure the locals love this video…

  36. Lonnie Christopher on April 23, 2021 at 1:27 am

    ……….Some places are just kinda’ hidden in Colorado…..!!

  37. Jay Sebring on April 23, 2021 at 1:28 am

    Those towns aren’t hidden or unknown.

  38. Joj Jojo on April 23, 2021 at 1:29 am

    Stay out of Colorado, you weirdos have already ruined the state

  39. June Robertson on April 23, 2021 at 1:30 am

    Love Leadville and Creede…..you forgot Westcliffe.

  40. Peyton Green on April 23, 2021 at 1:31 am

  41. Barbara McSpadden on April 23, 2021 at 1:32 am

    Snowplow driver- my son. Alma 🤗

  42. Michael Grusing on April 23, 2021 at 1:33 am

    Funny… I thought Aspen had that title.

  43. Matthew Eitzman on April 23, 2021 at 1:33 am

    I shit my pants

  44. John Hagy on April 23, 2021 at 1:33 am

    Great video – music is too loud – very distracting!

  45. Brian Krahmer on April 23, 2021 at 1:35 am

    if you want to get technical, Alma is a town and Leadville is a city.

  46. will Broski on April 23, 2021 at 1:37 am

    Would love to see a video of the bro-est town in CO. For us real bro-dogs

  47. June Robertson on April 23, 2021 at 1:38 am

    Westcliffe/Silver Cliff……..great area.

  48. some guy on April 23, 2021 at 1:38 am

    I love that the best town in Colorado is on none of these lists. I call it Secret Town to keep tourists away. (I am from remote British Columbia mountains in Canada, but an old friend of mine lives there. I went for a visit in 2019. Incredible small town.)

  49. Tayacuri Yucupicio on April 23, 2021 at 1:39 am

    My beautiful state! I am from the
    (Montrose CORA) Native American Tribe from western Colorado.👍🏾
