Bring on Summer! Here’s the Best Summer Road Trip in Colorado

Summertime is all about the road trips, so where are we going?

With Memorial Day weekend upon us, the summer season has unofficially, officially begun. Technically, the actual summer season starts about three weeks into June. However, this long holiday weekend has become our kickoff to summer.

And what's more fun than loading up the car and hitting the road?

What's great about a road trip is that you can easily complete it in a weekend. Cut out of work a tad early on Friday and get going! Well, maybe let your boss know ahead of time that you're leaving. That would prevent a nasty phone call while you're driving.

MSN put together a list of the Best Summer Road Trip Destinations in Every State. For Colorado, they chose Mosca. This place will feel like you have left Colorado and found yourself in the desert with the Great Sand Dunes National Park. You can sled down these dunes which are as high as 750 feet.

How fun does that sound?
