Colorado Snowsports Museum

Humble but informative, this museum takes you from the invention of skiing to the trials of the 10th Mountain Division, a decorated WWII alpine unit that trained in these mountains. There are also hilarious fashions from the past, as well as the fledgling Colorado Ski & Snowboard Hall of Fame. The museum runs tours ($5) on Fridays from 1pm to 3pm.
