Florissant

About 30 minutes west of Colorado Springs is the Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument. Fossilized redwood stumps up to 14 feet in diameter can be found, and it's one of the richest fossil deposits in the world. It's well worth the effort for those interested in such things.
The park also includes the restored Hornbek Homestead.
