West of 50 Road Trip: Cheyenne Mountain Zoo

**Please note that registration is FULL for this road trip**

Join us on a road trip to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo! This long-standing Colorado Springs staple was recently voted the second-best zoo in the U.S. by USA Today's Readers Choice Awards. Located at 6,714 feet above sea level, this Mountain Zoo offers breathtaking views of Colorado Springs and the opportunity to see over 750 animals. The zoo is best known for its large and prolific giraffe herd.

The zoo has also created an exhibit focused on animals from the Rocky Mountain Region. The Rocky Mountain Wild exhibit houses bald eagles, Canadian lynx, greenback cutthroat trout, grizzly bears, Mexican wolves, moose cougars, porcupines, river otters, rainbow trout, and wood ducts.
