I honestly loved every single trail town that I stopped in to during my Colorado Trail thru-hike. Colorado just has some really incredible mountain towns! But, if I were to choose favorites (and I’m going to), I would rank Lake City as my number one (Salida = the runner up!). The community is amazing, the town is super walkable and cute, it has everything you need (including a delicious bakery that I visited not one, not two, but THREE times!)…. But it also has an extremely colorful history - one that involves cannibalism. Yes, cannibalism. If you’d like to hear the story, check out my latest youtube video (channel = Audrey Adventures and the link is in my bio!). 🍽
