Roadtrippin' Colorado Style

All roads lead to ... an end.

Welcome to r-dub's site-within-a site, Colorado State Ends. It's the goal of this page to capture all existing interstate, US, and state highway ends in the Centennial State of Colorado.

This is an ongoing process, with many additions to come. Individual Highway pages can be found by clicking on the number. Updates to this page will be rolled into my homepage or can be found by utilizing my RSS Feed. Enjoy your tour!

Please note this site uses Google Maps to show the routings and endpoints of all the highways. You must have JavaScript turned on in your browser to see the ends.

The guide:

Black text means no images

Light blue text links to a highway's page

Red text links to a recently updated highway page.

Clicking on the "Open" link will drop down all of the highways in the section. The "~" marker means that the end isn't in the town that's listed. The town listed is the closest town to the end. For more information, you can visit my FAQ Page.

Also, FYI: this page/mini-site is still in beta form: things will change from the layout you see currently before all is said and done. Page URL's will not be changing, however. Bookmark as you deem necessary. I'm always interested in hearing your questions, comments or concerns.

Acknowledgements
Can't do this all by myself!

Any ends site takes a massive amount of work to complete. Because of this, I'm always looking for pictures I can use on this site. Any picture donated to this site will receive proper acknowledgment. You can email me any pictures you might have that you'd be interested in seeing on this site.

Much of the location information of the sites I got from Matt Salek's Highways of Colorado Site. Without that site, I'd be a lot further behind than I already am. Thank you for such a thorough site, Matt.

This mini-site became an idea for me after spending waaaay too much time at state-ends.com, and realizing that while there's quite a few pics of ends for Colorado, nobody has complied them into a single site. Being the masochist that I am, I decided to do just that.

For more information on what is going on here, check out my FAQ Page for questions answered with just the right amount of schtick.
