This is the place where Presidents, Celebrities, and Athletes stay when they are in the city. Golfing, Tennis, Restaurants, Spas, Meeting rooms, and Gift shops are all of the highest grade possible. Locals have their weddings here when dad says "anything for you, my baby girl". On 3000 acres next to the Rocky Mountain foothills, and below the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, if your company has their Christmas party here, you know you had a VERY good year.

Visit Instructions:
Because of the vastness of many of the "non-localized" sites (Gobi Desert, Great Wall of China), waymark owners are encouraged to allow visits that reflect different perspectives and experiences.
Localized waymark sites (Structures, Landmarks, Businesses) should reflect standard waymarking visit criteria (Logs & photos).
