Renting a Jeep is another spectacular way to get off the beaten path. These high-clearance 4x4s can go on old mining roads that most passenger cars cannot.

Aside from heli-skiing, with a few locations around Colorado, the other place to climb aboard a helicopter for a one-of-a-kind experience is at the Royal Gorge. The same company also leads trips flying to Pikes Peak and other sights in this region.
