As you may have realized by now, we here at Only in Colorado LOVE this time of year and all of the fun that goes along with it! One of the most iconic of attractions this time of year are elaborate light displays, which the Centennial State wins at every year; however, one light display you simply cannot miss this holiday season is that of Christmas Mountain:
Located in the mountain town of Salida lies the must-see Christmas Mountain; a Colorado tradition unlike any you’ve ever experienced.
