10 Things to Do Before Summer Ends in Denver & Boulder

Grab Palisade peaches

Hit your local farmers market and load up on the sweetest peaches Colorado grows. Eat one over the sink like nature intended.

Rent Paddle boards

Find a lake, rent a board, and try to stay upright. Falling in is half the fun, promise.

Visit a Flower Farm

Walk the rows, pick a bouquet, and take a hundred photos. It’s basically a free backdrop for life.

Try an Ice Cream Flight

Find a local scoop shop that does flights and taste your way through every flavor you’ve been eyeing all season.

Dip your Toes in a Creek

Find the nearest babbling creek, kick off your shoes, and let the cold water remind you to breathe.

Watch a Sunset Somewhere New

Pick a hilltop, a rooftop, or a meadow you’ve never tried. Golden hour hits different when the view is brand new.

Pick Fresh Berries

Find a U-pick farm near you and fill a bucket. Bonus points if half the berries make it home.

Backyard Movie Night

String up some lights, drag out every blanket you own, and watch something magical under the stars with your people.

Chase a Rainbow

After the next summer storm rolls through, run outside and look up. Colorado puts on a show if you pay attention.

Take a Spontaneous Road Trip

Pick a direction, load up the car, and go somewhere none of you have been. No itinerary required. Just wild little adventures and a CampSnap camera to remember them by.
