Thanks for the reply. Colorado is awesome. The scenery is unreal and the people have been very friendly. Made it to monument lake with my nephew and got my limit of rainbows. He is 18 and comes from a military family and loves to fish but hasn't in years and he caught a few. Nothing huge but they were tasty. Great memories were made and if I were to relocate this would be the spot. Garden of the gods is unreal, paradise cove is a gem. Can't wait till I can come back again. My brother inlaw will be retiring from the military soon, that will be my next trip from Ny. Id love to get some climbing gear and really explore those hills. Headed back tmrw but will miss this place.
