PARAGLIDING

The Colorado Rocky Mountains are a prime location for paragliding. There are associations located in Vail, Aspen and Steamboat where you can be instructed and certified to para-glide from peak to peak all across the Rockies. A paraglider is a large parachute that you harness onto yourself before you run off a cliff and soar across valleys and canyons. Obviously, paragliding is a unique experience and Colorado has the most unique terrain for it. There is no where else in the world with mountains like the Rockies and I can't say for myself, but Colorado's reccomended by many to be the best paragliding around.
