One of my favorite things to do is to get out and immerse myself into some part of God’s creation. As a Photographer I find great joy and satisfaction in seeing all of the great detail that our Heavenly Father has created, from the vast expanse of the universe down to the smallest parts of creation, there is no denying The God of all creation. Please be sure to take some time in 2017 to get out and enjoy some part of the great outdoors. If you are a Realtor Please take some time to visit BestLight Photography. If you have a blank spot on your wall that is begging to be filled please visit CreationScapes Photography. Owners David and Michele Weaver would be honored that you did. One more thought, let us all do our part to spread more peace on earth for 2017.

If you are looking for activities to do in the region, there is plenty to do for all ages. To the east at the foot of Pikes Peak lay the Cities of Colorado Springs and Manitou Springs where you can spend days exploring the many great activities that these two cities have to offer, for example take a walk underground in the Cave of the Winds, take a stroll back in time at the Manitou Cliff Dwellings, hike the trails in Garden of the gods or if they are too easy then challenge yourself to the 24 mile round trip to the top of Pikes Peak and back via the Barr Trail. If you are looking to sit back and relax as the scenery unfolds before you, check out the Pikes Peak Cog Railway or drive to the summit via the Pikes Peak Highway. About twenty miles to the south is the town of Cripple Creek where you can descend 1,000 feet underground in the Mollie Kathleen Gold Mine Tour. If you want to learn about the history of Cripple Creek, check out the Cripple Creek Heritage and Information Center located across from the Mollie Kathleen. While you are in Cripple Creek you may want to treat the family to a ride on the Cripple Creek & Victor Narrow Gauge Railroad. If you are looking for restaurants within a reasonable distance of the cabin, consider in the city of Woodland Park.

Vacation Rental By Owner is a great way to go when you are taking a vacation. Take a look at Mountain Sun Cabin in the mountains near Divide Colorado. Owners Brad and Laura of Divide Mountain Rentals along with their son Kyle (Manager) have done a great job again with this one. This beautiful cabin is situated on thirty five acres of land with expansive views of 14,115 foot Pikes Peak and other areas to the south. Spend some time hiking the thirty five acres of land, enjoy some time in the hot tub and cook up a nice meal on the grill to be enjoyed in the great outdoors or the beautiful indoor setting of the cabin.
The inside of the cabin is beautifully furnished to make your stay an unforgettable experience. After a day of exploring sit back and relax in the expansive cathedral living area and enjoy the views through the floor to ceiling windows while you watch a movie on the 46 inch plasma TV or enjoy reading your favorite book with a cozy fire in the rock fireplace. The Kitchen has all the tools you need to fix meals to feed your hungry family after a fun day of exploring. The kitchen and bathrooms have hickory cabinets and granite countertops. When the day is done and it is time for a good nights rest, slip into one of the beds with beautifully made Aspen bed frames made by the owner of the cabin.
If you are looking for activities to do in the region there are plenty. Twenty miles to the south there is the town of Cripple Creek where you can descend 1,000 feet underground in the World Famous Mollie Kathleen Gold Mine Tour. The ride to Cripple Creek is well worth the drive along this very scenic highway. While in town check out the many Restaurants, Museums, Gift shops or you may want to test your luck while in town. If you are looking for a nice hike on your way to Cripple Creek, you may want to check out The Crags Trail. The Crags Trail is a beautiful 4.9 mile round trip family friendly trail that brings you to some gorgeous granite rock formations where you can take in some spectacular views of the surrounding Colorado Mountains.

Twenty plus miles to the east is Manitou Springs and Colorado Springs where you can tour the Manitou Cliff Dwellings, Cave of the Winds and Garden of the gods. If you wish to bag 14,115 foot Pikes Peak, there are three ways to do it, one ride the Pikes Peak Cog Railway, two take a drive up the Pikes Peak Highway or hike the twelve miles of Barr trail one way to the top. (It is another twelve plus miles back down, so you will want to plan your exit route.) If a hike to the top of the peak seems like a bit much, nearby Garden of the god’s has several great hikes within the park.

For the fisherman in the family you can test your skills on the South Platte River, with locations like Eleven Mile Canyon, Eleven Mile Canyon Reservoir, Spinney Mountain Reservoir and the Gold Metal fly fishing stretch of the South Platte River known as The Dream Stream. At the end of a great day of fishing out in a beautiful part of creation, and you have a need to feed your hunger, check out one of the restaurants in the town of Divide, such as McGintys Wood Oven Pub or Mikes Corner BBQ or check out the City of Woodland Park to the east of Divide.
