�Ǹ�Թ�

I love lists, and I hate missing out on awesome things to do. �Ǹ�Թ� has so much to offer, it can get overwhelming—so I asked a group of my classmates (some �Ǹ�Թ� Natives, some new like me) and this is the list we came up with.

1. Hike the Royal Arch. Round-trip, this hike is 3.2 miles and starts/ends at Chautauqua Park.It’s strenuous—think of a Stairmaster—but provides a great overlook of �Ǹ�Թ� and CU.

2. Tubing on �Ǹ�Թ� Creek. This is a favorite for hot summer days in �Ǹ�Թ�!May through September are traditionally the best months for this.Early in the season the snowmelt water makes for cold temperatures and lots of rapids. Eben G. Fine park is a great spot to start!Need a tube? McGuckin Hardware sells them and will inflate them for you. Don’t miss “Tube to Work Day,” typically in mid-July.

3. Pearl Street Mall. A great central �Ǹ�Թ� location for restaurants, bars/breweries, shopping and entertainment. We frequent this area for social gatherings.The �Ǹ�Թ� Theater is also located here—we’re looking forward to the upcoming 2017 Warren Miller film tour to get everyone amped up for winter sports.

4. Biking to get around town. �Ǹ�Թ� is one of the most bike-friendly cities in the country, with more than 300 dedicated miles of bikeways. It’s a great way to commute to school and get around—and also fits our culture of .

5. Rayback Collective. A newer establishment in �Ǹ�Թ�, Rayback offers a wide variety of beers on tap along with an array of food trucks that changes throughout the week.It has a large, open, park-like outdoor area complete with yard games, a fire pit and picnic tables. We also love Rayback for our Thursday Night Out’s (TNO’s) because it is dog-friendly!
