Norwood Colorado's Top Summer Activities
With activities for everyone, from hiking and climbing, mountain and road biking, horseback riding, fishing, boating and water sports, ATV/UTV/off-roading and dirt biking, camping, bird watching and epic star gazing, Norwood is a true hidden gem when it comes to summer activities in Colorado.
Located at 7,000 feet in southwestern Colorado, Norwood sits approximately two hours south of Grand Junction, two hours north of Cortez, one and a half hours east of Moab and forty minutes west of Telluride and Ridgway. Norwood, Western Colorado's first International Dark Sky Association Dark Sky Community, is an ideal location for outdoor recreation with its mild climate giving way to warm summer days and cool nights.
Surrounded by thousands of acres of public BLM and National Forest land, the area features varying terrain from high desert landscape with piñon, juniper and sage brush, to aspen and pine tree forests, rugged mountains, 12,000+ foot peaks, and everything in between. Norwood is the ultimate Colorado playground for outdoor lovers and adventure seekers alike!

    I'm a living ancestor of the McCarty gang...our grandfather changed our last name to Young. His step fathers family name. His real dad died in the world war. He changed it when he swore in as an officer. Said he might as well change it or our ancestors would roll over in their graves.

      @@zynial69 interesting to hear means we are relatives of some sort but my great great grandfather seemed like a very interesting man i never knew much about my family history an to know I had people who were pioneers of agriculture and farming inspires me to do more. The gillilands eventually became what is now my last name Carter im aware that Tom had a father who moved to washington away from his two sons but brought one with him would you come from the brother who was with their father in Washington sense Fred Mccarty died soon after

    I'm a McCarty. Grandfather glen was a deputy so he changed our last name to his sted dad. He said if our ancestors knew he was a cop they'd roll over in their graves.

    Good to hear Howard's voice. He is also a terrific writer I have enjoyed the 5 or so books he's written.

    In high school we had to choose someone to interview and write our paper for our English final about them. My partner and I interviewed Howard. His wife Betty was also my 4-H cake decorating leader. Absolutely wonderful people! ❤️

    Howard and Betty Greagor knew my Dad, Tom Stephens and older brother Al Stephens. Al lived there quite some time and raised his family of 7 in Norwood. Great place to grow up I'm saying. We (my twin sister and I) went to high school in that school Howard shows in this video. Cool history.
