It's almost as sweet as the gold rush that takes Discover Colorado to the historic mining city of Cripple Creek. It's the home of awesome events such as Donkey Derby Day and The Big Aspen Happenin'. The city's events are great for the whole family or if you would like a relaxing getaway, then look no further. | Denver7
