Colorado is totally worth moving to. I'm an hour away from anything I could want to do outdoors. Within a two hour drive I have some of the most beautiful places in the country all to myself.

15 minutes away, with lots of little beach coves to kayak camp at. An hour away there's a huge set of sand dunes where Pacific storms deposit shark teeth against the Rockies. Four-ish hours away is the absolutely surreal Great Sand Dunes National Park: https://images.app.goo.gl/hcxfRwEjYGpv3HxU8
