Quotes If you have to ask, "Is that good enough?" the answer will undoubtedly be, "No, it isn't." ~ G. Eldon Smith A visit to:Roxborough State Park in the foothills just above Denver attracts visitors with its amazing red-rock formations and abundant wildlife.

Visitors from all over the world come to see the wonders of Roxborough State Park

Denver-area residents have one of nature’s jewels in their backyard.

Ro​xborough​ is a Colorado Natural Area and a National Natural Landmark for good reason. The park, with close to 4000-acres, is filled with dramatic red-rock formations, distinct plant communities, and a host of wildlife ranging from black bears to mule deer.

Visitors can take in all of Roxborough’s geological wonders via a series of trails ​ for every level of hiker. The Fountain Valley Overlook is only 100 yards from the Visitor Center and provides spectacular views of several beautiful rock formations, including the Fountain Formation, Lyons Formation, and the Dakota Hogback.

Many visitors tote their cameras to capture one of the many beautiful views or animal sightings such as red fox from one of the park’s overlooks.​

Murder in the Rockies is available at most electronic retailers and many fine bookstores
