Head South
The Denver metro area might still be facing a little bit of back and forth on the spring temperatures versus winter weather right now, but if you head south to Arizona, New Mexico, or even just Southern Colorado, you might be pleased to find warmer temps and more consistent sunshine without the potential of impending snow. Sure, there are plenty of people who subscribe to the “head south for winter” ideology, but why not spend a little time Southbound for the spring?
Baseball Season
One of the best parts of spring? Baseball season returns! Whether you’re a die hard opening day-er or just like to enjoy some of the first games of America’s greatest pastime, now’s the time to get your tickets and get ready to see your favorite team hit a few out of the park (hopefully!). Baseball season started a little early this year, with the official opening day being March 29, and our own Colorado Rockies having their first game on April 6, but if you missed the first couple of milestones, there’s nothing saying you can’t hop in now and get your swing, batter, batter on for the rest of the spring! Might we recommend rock pile tickets if you want to enjoy our hometown team without breaking the bank?
Get Your Hike On
It’s finally getting warmer out – and that means the snow and ice on the trails in the front range are starting to melt. There may even be trails on the Western slope or in southern Colorado that are completely dry and even a little warm, ready for you to lace up those hiking boots and explore a little more. Look, we get it, when winter rears its head, it’s often easier to bundle up at home than get out there and explore in the frigid mountain temperatures, but now that everything’s starting to thaw and warm up, the time to put some miles on your vehicle and your favorite pair of hiking shoes is now! Plan a quick weekend trip or take a couple of days off and do some serious trailblazing.
Spring is always a little strange in the Front Range, what with the indecisive weather and sometimes-beautiful, sometimes-freezing temperatures, but as the flowers start blooming and the trees begin budding once again, it can be one of the most beautiful times to explore, check out some sports, or just soak up those rays of sunlight you missed out on in the drearier parts of the winter months.
