Big Update/Expansion

Hey everyone, I made some pretty substantial updates and contributions to the page as part of a Wiki education course. I'm a new user so if I made any crucial errors please go ahead and fix them! Thanks! --Njpierce16 (talk) 00:00, 11 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Name that canyon

edit

I just noticed that an anonymous user recognized a problem that I've noticed before, but didn't know what to do with. While his revision is technically correct, it may confuse locals, because there is a canyon east of Woodland Park that is commonly and incorrectly referred to as "Ute Pass".

So my question is, does anyone know what that canyon's real name is? There is a hiking trail head in the middle of the canyon, and the trail is labeled as being for "Waldo Canyon"; however, I'm not sure if that is the same canyon that US Highway 24 runs through. Anyone know for sure?

Thanks! -- Ken g6 19:11, 19 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Just a little update: this map and this legend show that the Waldo Canyon trail does not follow US 24. So the canyon appears not to be Waldo Canyon.
Several sites give the name "Fountain Creek Canyon", which is what I would expect a canyon containing Fountain Creek to be named, but none is what I call a reliable source. I haven't yet decided to call it that.

Climate

edit

That climate data looks quite suspicious. Can someone provide a reliable source that proves that data? If not, I may delete the weather box. UltraSnowstorm (talk) 17:26, 9 August 2013 (UTC)Reply
