CO REVIEW: Discoveries...America: Colorado "The latest entry in award-winning filmmakers Jim and Kelly Watt's high-definition-filmed series that takes armchair travelers on an eye-popping tour of the United States, visits Colorado's well-known sites (Pikes Peak, Mesa Verde National Park, etc.), and uncovers some "hidden treasures" (such as Winterpark, the Black Canyon of the Gunnison River, and the Durango Railfest). Boasting outstanding cinematography coupled with informative and entertaining descriptions of each of the profiled attractions, this is another winner that is sure to be a popular addition to travel collections. Recommended."
