Description: Ever wonder who Mount Evans is named after? Ever wonder why Boulder was established? Ever wonder what your own backyard looked like 100 years ago? 500 years ago? 1000 years ago? This Colorado History course is designed to answer all these questions and more. We'll explore Ancient Colorado, from the time of the American Indians to the fur trappers of the West. We'll explore Colorado's gold rush foundations and how a little mining town of Denver could transform into a booming metropolis. Who knows, you might even learn about a gunslinger or two! This course is designed to bring the past to life and to gain a greater understanding of what makes this state so great!
