Join us as we take a scenic walk through Morrison, CO, a charming town with a rich history founded by George Morrison. Originally a mining town, Morrison quickly became a tourist hotspot thanks to a spur of the South Park and Pacific Railroad that brought visitors from Denver. Nestled in the shadow of the world-renowned Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Morrison is a gem of Colorado history and natural beauty.
In this video, we'll share fascinating stories about Morrison's past, from its days as a mining hub to its transformation into a tourist city. We'll also delve into the history of Red Rocks Amphitheatre, once known as the Garden of the Titans, and the incredible dinosaur discoveries in the area.
As we stroll through Morrison, we'll point out some of the town's historic landmarks, including:
- The Church in Morrison
- All the buildings on Bear Creek Ave
- Cliff House Inn
- The Old School House
Our journey wouldn't be complete without a visit to the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre, which we believe is the best concert venue in the world.
