Our kiddos in the group couldn't take their eyes off of the performers. Seating was general admission and super easy to accommodate our large party. Concessions were available as well as shopping.

Hardly any one else has reviewed a rodeo on Yelp! but what the hay, why not?…read moreThis is a small rodeo in size--and that is its main advantage--you can get up close to the action and each evening show lasts around two hours; that is good for kids. It ranks high in prize money so it draws professional rodeo contestants from around the US. The events are very well organized and things move fast with little or no "dead" time. The Behind the Chutes tour is excellent but it sells out early so your best chance to to order tickets online in advance. My only criticism is that all the rodeo start times are 7:15 pm. This means that by the time the last event, bull riding, takes place it is too dark for photos and even before that the light fades so only the fastest cameras and lenses will capture good images. (When I attended, there had been rain showers just before the start and heavy cloud cover advanced the time of darkness.) Because the bleachers and arena are small, a 200mm lens is sufficient for most shots.

Yes, there are two floors to explore and a lot of history to read about. The curator there happened to be a really nice guy by the name of Colin. His knowledge was far impressive and gave a welcoming vibe to the entire experience. If you're going to the YMCA of the Rockies I would highly recommend this as a must stop!

Fabulous! Get out there! Thanks to the volunteers making the ranch such a great, enjoyable learning experience.

4/26/25-As a historian I love old buildings and this is a unique part of Colorado history. At the…read moresame time trying to make old buildings meet modern needs has to been done if you want them to be usable to the public. First thing is that the building is not ADA friendly. The only bathrooms the had open during Bigfoot Days were down some stairs. No elevator access or ground floor bathrooms. So if you have mobility devices or walking issues this is not a place for you. Also even the 'updated' seats are not American size. I say this because a lot of Americans are overweight and if you have any weight on you, you are squished in the chairs. A lot would need to be done to make the building friendly for all which I understand would be a huge expense. I hope the city helps put some money into this place so that it would be good for city sponsored events.

THIS made the stop here so much better. We got to meet and hang out with Erik Stensland himself. We LOVE his hiking guide and views from around the park. While my cell phone and digital camera take some nice photos the images here capture the feelings. It was great chatting with him about the book and the process of putting it together. His staff was super friendly and professional. They took care of us as we were indecisive looking through all the wonderful photos. I suspect many more will be joining the three we started with. This place is a must stop at place.
