55 Colorado Springs Attractions in 5 Days

You many not be able to go to 55 attractions in 5 days, but we did.

Colorado Springs and the surrounding region have an overwhelming amount of things to do and see! In fact, there are more than 60 man-made and natural attractions to experience. 

There's no way anyone could experience them all in just one trip. Tracy, Chelsy and Sarah thought they would give this epic adventure a shot. Welcome to the "55 Attractions in 5 Days" Challenge.
