Thank you for promoting our wonderful state. However, it’s properly “Bishop Castle”. Jim was known for making sure if he heard folks saying “Bishop’s”, he’d correct them. In honor of his hard work-I think we should make sure we say it right. 😉
Soy una mexicana viviendo en Colorado ya por mas de 12 años y nunca había escuchado sobre estos lugares . Creo que mi vida está tan ocupada solo trabajando y no me he dado cuenta de todo lo que me he perdido. Colorado es verdaderamente hermoso.
Colorado is more than interesting, Colorado is paradise! I’ve been on a Rocky Mountain High for years now, ever since I visited Rocky Mountain National Park.
i love crestone. stayed at crestone zen center, incredible time for anyone looking to engage in that practice in a peaceful and really heavenly place. Moving there in my van for while this year!
The San Luis Valley is inside a Military Operations Area, so many aircraft frequent the area at low to high altitude and often those aircraft have no markings on them, or are painted in markings designed to mask their exact shape.
I was just at the sand dunes in the valley for my birthday this past Sunday. There is definitely a lot of energy in the valley it's a special and beautiful place. Largest valley in the world.
Great rundown of places near Colorado Springs, but as many of the other comments say, the rest of Colorado has strange places as well. I would suggest CO HWY 14 "The Ghost Highway" where strange things just happen. Leave Ft. Collins and head out to Sterling, there is an energy along that road that isn't "normal". There is also the town of Stout, CO, located at the bottom of Horsetooth Reservoir. Also near Ft. Collins, and since you put Bishop's Castle on here, the Swetsville Zoo is another stop you have to make. And what about The Stanley Hotel in Estes Park? Inspiration for Steven King's The Shining, and known to be haunted by locals and people that work there, it should be added as well. And although not particularly strange, certainly unique, Casa Bonita and Linger's Eatuary are must go to places to enjoy some food and take in the experience.
As a Geographer I love this… Thanks for sharing. I’ve been to Bishops castle and I have a paint mines video on my own video channel… But I learned a few new things here… What is the tunnel at the beginning of your video?
You should add Garden Of The Gods! It’s beautiful, yes it’s a theme park but how the rocks are formed is just amazing😍 I’ve been on the Independence Pass and I almost threw up it’s crazy look up Independence Pass, CO and Garden Of The Gods CO.
Yes, I believe it still does breath fire. Maybe not during this fire ban.l, bit Jim Bishop has been in bad health latley, so.i don't know if he comes out that often anymore..
Jim is a very opinionated man! Hope he isdoing well, heard he was having health problems a few years back. The castle is amazing. Ave seen it about 50 times in my life
Such a beautiful state, it's a tragedy all the good people moved to Utah or Texas to flea the ones who are currently here. Calirado just isn't the same :(
I have lived in Colorado my whole life and haven’t even heard of most of these places. I guess that’s what I get for not being a tourist who only visits for the view, and because I live here.
My town is kinda interesting. Every year we hold a festival celebrating a headless chicken and we have a giant statue of a dinosaur that eats the grinch every Christmas.
I'm just telling you what they believe... you take it how you want, you can believe in what they think or think they are crazy. It makes no difference to me.
This is an Under Cover San Louis Valley promo video! Bishops Castle Is Awesome!!! Beyond that, the whole valley and all of the dumpster towns in it are AWFUL. I have lived in CO for 37 years, I wouldnt waste more than a half day here at MOST!
Thank you. These tunnels are part of the old Midland Railroad next to a canyon near Manitou springs... or Colorado Springs. They are up above the highway.. look for them as you drive through the canyon.
Colorado used to be the most awesome state in country, and had such a cool vibe. Now its beginning to suck. Too many Californians moved in and brought their stuck up attitudes and politics with them. It's gotten so expensive as well. It's still a nice state but becoming more crowded every day and changing for the worse. Any popular hike near Denver on a weekend is like a freaking conga line, and the ski resorts are a zoo. I'm thinking of moving to Montana. It's still like how Colorado used to be 20 years ago and arguably even more beautiful.
It's a old railroad tunnel near Colorado Springs, along the highway in the canyon, going up.. it might be trespassing to go there now I hear... but idk
No, I live in Colorado, so I mostly get just Colorado and some of Utah. The closest thing to Nevada is one video on a amazing canyon off the Grand Canyon called Havasu. Amazing place! ua-cam.com/video/5EGO6JLc1IA/v-deo.html
I've been to the alligator farm and UFO watch tower. I went there in the same day, as well as the sand dunes. But the strangest place in Colorado is Colfax Avenue, which I live 5 blocks from.
Ryks Video well you can no longer Park in the median on 24 it's posted no parking, and directly across the road there is a sign that says no trespassing property of Department of Transportation on the trail going up.
Ryks Video Haha, no worries. I have bad OCD, when it comes to grammar, I guess. Thank my mother, for that !! Lol (Very informative vids, about my beloved home state!! Thx 4 posting!!) :)
Strange place for sure. I always hear stories about how cows go missing there as well. Like 30 disappear in a day... just lost in the mountains I guess... never to be found again

Congrats!!
I will never loose my love for Colorado.
Same here.
Same here, probably
Im a Coloradan. Never had heard of the "Paint Mines". Been east of the Springs. Was a secret til now : ) Thanks!!
Louis Weinhold the Paint mines are epic. I’m glad people don’t know about it
I went there nearly a year ago now
Eastern Colorado is just as breathtaking as the west. Lots to explore!

Shoutout from Denver
It's easy not to notice all the interesting places near where one lives.
Carpe diem
You forgot Boulder. Boulder is the weirdest place in Colorado.
Yes. Yes it is
george kuersten , You are right, We lived in Boulder
Boulder County 1200sq miles surrounded by reality.
I wish I could forget Boulder. Boulder just sucks and feels like it needs to let everyone know how weird and quirky.
on the nose.
Colorado is more than interesting, Colorado is paradise! I’ve been on a Rocky Mountain High for years now, ever since I visited Rocky Mountain National Park.
It is awesome!
Was paradise till Californians moved here and started implementing their B.S. laws here.
Yep Kevin but you got to be in the mountains in my opinion
i love crestone. stayed at crestone zen center, incredible time for anyone looking to engage in that practice in a peaceful and really heavenly place. Moving there in my van for while this year!

Largest Alpine desert in the world.
Such an awesome video bro! You just added a few new stops on my next Colorado roadtrip🤙
Thank you, glad you liked it!

Oh those deserve their own video.. The haunted places if Colorado.
I love Colorado, it's a little cold to live there but visiting I enjoyed it.
That intro was excellent. What a cool place to fly! Thumb up!
Thanks
you forgot the sand dunes
That's in another video.
It's vortecies, not vortexes. Great videos. I'm from Colorado and I love it here!
Alright I will remember that haha, thank you.
Love the paint mines. Pictures don't do it justice.
No they do not. They are so colorful
You are an awesome drone pilot!
Colorado Urban Legends Thank you
My family and I used to go to the gator farm all the time! My dad wrestled them and then we’d all sit on the back of it to take family photos!
That sounds like a fun time!
Nice video! And thanks, UA-cam Recommended!
Thanks!
This is a killer video!! Very awesome and helpful
Thank you!
I haven't seen much out of you in awhile! Keep bringing the good vids bro.
I have been busy filming thus summer. One should be uploaded in 5 minutes.. a little different and a bit longer than usual tho
I use to live right by the paint mines they’re amazing
Nice video. Bishop's Castle is interesting for sure.
Thank you, yes it is.
I've live just north of the Springs 30 some years & I've never heard of the Paint Mines. I just moved away from the front range & now I hear about it.
They left hub caps and spongebob toys to connect their energy to vortexes? makes perfect sense.
Yeah....
I'd like to remind you that smoking Marihuana is legal In the State of Colorado.
Well Hippies are not known to be well connected to reality.
Tributary House Ltd. That has to be the most dumb and desperate comment I've seen in a while. Here is some attention for you baby.
Strange I've lived in Colorado my whole life yet there's still so much I haven't seen
Me too
Beautiful
Thank you..
As a Geographer I love this… Thanks for sharing. I’ve been to Bishops castle and I have a paint mines video on my own video channel… But I learned a few new things here… What is the tunnel at the beginning of your video?
It's the old train tunnels going into the mountains from Colorado Springs
You’ve got some good ones on here for sure!
Thanks
The sand dunes are pretty strange and majestic. Just a bunch of sand, more than you would imagine to be in a random place by some mountains.
True, but I featured them in another video I made..
You video does our great state justice, good job.
Thank you
Amazing!!!!!!
This state is so amazing 😍😍
Yes it is
My mother is from grand junction. I live in louisiana and always wanted to travel to Colorado. Havent been there since i was 2.
Well, you should visit. Soon!
I love in Delta, which is really close to Grand Junction. It’s an amazing place to live!
I live in alamosa
You should add Garden Of The Gods! It’s beautiful, yes it’s a theme park but how the rocks are formed is just amazing😍 I’ve been on the Independence Pass and I almost threw up it’s crazy look up Independence Pass, CO and Garden Of The Gods CO.
I love independence pass... I should if put in my best drives in Colorado video... and Garden of the Gods would have been a good one
"On weekends, the dragon breathes fire." So does Jim Bishop (reported in fondness).
Yes, I believe it still does breath fire. Maybe not during this fire ban.l, bit Jim Bishop has been in bad health latley, so.i don't know if he comes out that often anymore..
Jim is a very opinionated man! Hope he isdoing well, heard he was having health problems a few years back.
The castle is amazing. Ave seen it about 50 times in my life
He built the Dragon out of donated stainless steel food trays.
If you get him talking just plan to be there a while, but he is an amazing guy.
@@kutzbill yes he is!
Such a beautiful state, it's a tragedy all the good people moved to Utah or Texas to flea the ones who are currently here. Calirado just isn't the same :(
Mr. Happy, you are 100 percent correct.
Ive been to bishops castle plenty of times (even the top) but never knew it was built by one person, dam.
I'm sure some days he had help from friends or family.. but yeah he built it
Ryks Video
Dang, I feel like going again now XD
I'm from CO and didnt know about some of these lol. Great video man!!
Thank you!
i passed by the ufo tower on my colorado road trip this summer.
I live here, great job and there is so much more for you to see.
Thanks. Yeah I have been doing a ton of backpacking this summer.. just so I can capture the best backpack trips.
The paint mines would be a great spot to find geodes
Really? Never thought of that. Why would that be?
I lived in calhan, about 5 minutes down the road from the paint mines. Terrible spot to find geodes
The strangest thing is in the San Luis valley, is the "alamosa sand dunes" geologists don't know why it formed
Those sand dunes are really neat up against those mountains
I have lived in Colorado my whole life and haven’t even heard of most of these places.
I guess that’s what I get for not being a tourist who only visits for the view, and because I live here.
Not true. It means you need to get out of your house more.
That is some depressing shit.
Get off the couch
I have been to a lot of these places... Colorado is unique..
That intro looked like the tunnels off of highway 24, also RIP to the America shrine on the way to Buena Vista on 24 as well.
It was, from a while ago.
Where's the highway tunnels on highway 24
I was watching my video top 5 things to do in Colorado Springs that led me to this video
I've lived in Colorado my whole life and Bishop castle is the only thing on this list I've even heard of.
I am always finding something new here every year
Just stayed in crestone for two weeks. Strange and beautiful place
would you recommend checking it out? I'll be nearby at the sand dunes
I lived in Colorado for almost 16 years now and i haven't heard of these
Well, it is weirder Colorado... check them out!
My town is kinda interesting. Every year we hold a festival celebrating a headless chicken and we have a giant statue of a dinosaur that eats the grinch every Christmas.
Sounds strange, what town is that?
Here in Aurora we got something called 'Hearse con'. Because what's better than a car show dedicated to some of the sexiest cars around?
..'hear'..lol
Robert Allen Oof, I just realized that, thanks for pointing that out man.
Ryks Video I'm thinking either Fruita, Pallisade, or Dinosaur
Sincerely,
Thank you
Glad you liked it
Colorado has become a dope den. I would go there every year for a month and last time was twenty five years ago. I will never go back.
I've lived here a decade, and my parents moved here 4 decades ago. It's not what I see when I go out each day.
Bishop Castle, done... Paint Mines, done... Pikes Peak, done...and some other nice places .
Now time to add some more places to the list?
Georgetown loop
🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃take that train when the Aspen leaves are gold 🍁it's a memory you'll cherish forever
Spare us all the spiritual/new-agey mumbo jumbo. But the castle and paint mine do seem cool.
I'm just telling you what they believe... you take it how you want, you can believe in what they think or think they are crazy. It makes no difference to me.
Paint mines are great. Went there last year.
another interesting place is the stations of the cross at San Luis … The oldest town in Colorado as well. I have a video on it on my channel.
Nice, yeah I have a video of that area as well, being the oldest town in Colorado. That is a neat area
I’m a Colorado native!
Dark White nice
Congrats, there's probably only like half a million people who can make that claim. What a dumb comment.
This is an Under Cover San Louis Valley promo video! Bishops Castle Is Awesome!!! Beyond that, the whole valley and all of the dumpster towns in it are AWFUL. I have lived in CO for 37 years, I wouldnt waste more than a half day here at MOST!
Well there is a lot if strange stuff in that valley. Check out the paint mines?
Well being from Aurora,CO. these places are unique and not strange.
Nice drone work.
Thank you
This was awesome! In the intro to your video you "drone" through a cave in the rock. Is that in CO too? If so, where? Thanks so much!
Thank you. These tunnels are part of the old Midland Railroad next to a canyon near Manitou springs... or Colorado Springs. They are up above the highway.. look for them as you drive through the canyon.
Gold Camp near Colorado Springs
Odd. I thought it was glen wood canyon
@@Owmarsh12 Nope. Highway 24 heading west to Woodland Park would be to the left of the camera frame.
I’ve been to the UFO Tower. Great place.
Shit looks like the next elder scrolls game lol.
:06 where is this and how easy is it to access?
I’ve seen all but the gator farm and crestone ig I have 2 new places to visit!
San Luis Valley seems to be full of unique stuff. Glad I moved here.
Yeah, strange place
Colorado used to be the most awesome state in country, and had such a cool vibe. Now its beginning to suck. Too many Californians moved in and brought their stuck up attitudes and politics with them. It's gotten so expensive as well. It's still a nice state but becoming more crowded every day and changing for the worse.

It's still like how Colorado used to be 20 years ago and arguably even more beautiful.
I live here and haven't even heard of some of these places.
There are vortexes and Bigfoot. Amazing place..
Yup....
The UFO Tower is nothing short of a dumping ground.
The strangest place in Colorado are the Penthouse strip club. What a nightmare.
Goddess Usako lol you live here? I'm in Lakewood bae
Hmu let's blaze sum
Alan Cee I'm in Greeley. Come dab.
Kitana Kojima Dandy Dance !
New freind here stay connected always back
I mean, I'm sure the land has good vibes and all, but... I'm prrrretty sure it was the grants.
Yup
Where is that very first place filmed? Like that huge cave tunnel?
It's a old railroad tunnel near Colorado Springs, along the highway in the canyon, going up.. it might be trespassing to go there now I hear... but idk
You forgot about adidas rock off the Colorado river, I saw it a few weeks ago.
Never heard of it.
Where can i find the initial shot of the tunnel?
It is on the way out of Colorado Springs heading west, past Manitou springs.. it is above the highway on the south side. The old railroad
Do you have a video like this of Nevada?
No, I live in Colorado, so I mostly get just Colorado and some of Utah. The closest thing to Nevada is one video on a amazing canyon off the Grand Canyon called Havasu. Amazing place! ua-cam.com/video/5EGO6JLc1IA/v-deo.html
The strangest place is Colfax Avenue during the wee hours of the morning
True
You ain't speaking no lies there!
In the old days it was East Colfax
I've been to the alligator farm and UFO watch tower. I went there in the same day, as well as the sand dunes. But the strangest place in Colorado is Colfax Avenue, which I live 5 blocks from.
Fletcher Lucas
Lol someone tried to sell my friend cocaine on a bus on west colfax, we were both teenagers
Oot spagoot that's why you don't ride the 15, 15L, 16, or 16L. Ride any other bus.
I just ate ethiopian food on Colfax... holy smokes that is some really good food!
lived here all my life, been to all of these seem like they attract the weird of society, proof loons have been taking over Colorado for years.
Great video! Subbed!
Thank you
Well done
Thank you
I want to go to Crestone!!!!
It's a strange place, but cool
..strange cuz of the peeps? I totally wanna go there to soak up the vibe...
so did you go? how was it?
You should have added something about the lake Loch Lomond monster
I mean he's got his own mailbox and everything LOL
Where is this mailbox?
It's up above lake Loch Lomond..... st. Mary's Glacier area
Ryks Video it's easier to go up the back side and come down from the top...... if you four-wheel that area you will probably run into it
Sasquatch Aquatics interesting
I live in Colorado
90 UFO sitings ... of Denver aircraft arrivals !
should have mentioned the sand dunes
Yeah. I put them in another video I made.
I am a Colorado native so I u a native haaaay
What?
Those tunnels at the beginning of the video now have a no trespassing sign on them :/ too many people here now.
Dang, all of them?
Ryks Video well you can no longer Park in the median on 24 it's posted no parking, and directly across the road there is a sign that says no trespassing property of Department of Transportation on the trail going up.
Was that before or after they added improved highway 24
I love crestone! My friend lived up there very Religous
Well that's 3:53 i'll never get back.
Is it? What where you expecting?
MUDFOSSIL UNIVERSITY
The plural for "vortex" is not, "vortexes" - it is: "vortices".
My bad
Ryks Video Haha, no worries. I have bad OCD, when it comes to grammar, I guess. Thank my mother, for that !! Lol (Very informative vids, about my beloved home state!! Thx 4 posting!!) :)
The San Luis valley is hella creepy
Strange place for sure. I always hear stories about how cows go missing there as well. Like 30 disappear in a day... just lost in the mountains I guess... never to be found again
You forget " Delta co 👍
Believe me Creatine is haunted and spooky
I meant Crestone
Creatine is a sports enhancement supplement 🤪😆😎😛
The holy valley says
" baca grande "
the big cow??🐮
cool!
Thanks
