Glen Eyrie

Glen Eyrie is an English Tudor-style castle built in 1871 by General William Jackson Palmer, the founder of Colorado Springs. The castle is owned today by The Navigators, a worldwide Christian organization. It is open for public tours and events and can be rented for private programs. History Founded in 1871, Glen Eyrie was the home of William Jackson Palmer. Palmer was a Brigadier General in the Union Army during the American Civil War, president of the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad, and founder of Colorado Springs. Palmer and his wife Mary “Queen” Mellen made Glen Eyrie their home. They had three daughters, Elsie, Dorothy, and Marjorie. General Palmer died in 1909, and the Palmer sisters left the estate untouched for several years before finally selling it. The estate changed hands several times. In 1938 the property was purchased by an oil baron from Texas, George Strake. The Strake family turned Glen Eyrie into their summer home, repairing and building up the property. However, the flood of 1949 wreaked havoc on the land, and with their children now grown, they determined to put Glen Eyrie back on the market. Glen Eyrie was purchased as the headquarters of The Navigators in 1953, following a campaign to raise the down payment of $100,000 in only six weeks. The castle has several features that were advanced for its time, including a primitive intercom system and a two chimney system operated by a lever that would direct the smoke depending on what direction the wind was blowing to take the smoke out of the valley. In case of fires there were also fire hose stations placed throughout the castle. There are 24 fireplaces. Glen Eyrie is on the National Register of Historic Places. Today Today the Navigators maintain Glen Eyrie as their headquarters. The Castle is available for tours, events, and overnight stays, with guest rooms, meeting rooms and dining rooms and six lodges on the property available for overnight stays. The Castle has an afternoon tea service in the Music Room, as well as an annual Christmas Madrigal Banquet in the Great Hall. Common wildlife sightings include the largest bighorn sheep herd in the state of Colorado, wild turkeys, deer, and a variety of birds of prey. The name “Eyrie” means “eagle’s nest.” See also National Register of Historic Places listings in El Paso County, Colorado References External links Media related to Glen Eyrie at Wikimedia Commons Official website
Glen Eyrie

Glen Eyrie es un palacio ubicado en Colorado, Estados Unidos.​ Historia Glen Eyrie fue construido por el general William Jackson Palmer, fundador de Colorado Springs.​ Esta fue la casa de sus sueños y está cerca de Colorado Springs, en las estribaciones del jardín de las formaciones de roca de los dioses (en la actualidad un parque de la ciudad). Después de la construcción de una cochera grande, donde la familia vivió por un tiempo, Palmer y su esposa Mary Mellen construyeron una casa de madera de 22 habitaciones de 800 acres. Esta casa fue remodelada en 1881 para incluir una torre y algunas habitaciones adicionales, y hacer que se asemejara a un castillo de piedra, que recordara a todos los nativos de Inglaterra. En 1880, la señora Palmer sufrió un leve ataque al corazón y se le aconsejó trasladarse a una altitud más baja.​ Ella y las niñas se trasladaron a la Costa Este y luego a Inglaterra, donde el General Palmer la visitaba a menudo. La reina murió el 28 de diciembre de 1894, a la edad de 44 años.​ Referencias
Glenisle

Glenisle, also known as Glen-Isle on the Platte and Glen Isle Resort, is a rustic-style resort hotel built at the turn of the 20th century. The hotel is located just off US Highway 285 in Bailey, Colorado, United States, and has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1985. The rustic main lodge building's most distinctive feature is a three-story round tower with a conical roof. It is located on the bank of the North Fork of the South Platte River. It was deemed "significant as the last remaining turn-of-the-century resort hotel in the once popular South Platte Canyon west of Denver. It was constructed as a result of the railroad building and promotion that played a significant role in development throughout Colorado in the late 19th century. Real estate promotion and tourist development became an integral part of the expansion of passenger traffic, and the Colorado & Southern invested a significant amount of capital into the Platte Canyon for just such reasons. The Adirondack inspired rustic architecture of Glenisle and its neighboring resorts was a popular theme for turn-of-the-century inns in Colorado and Glenisle remains as one of the few good intact examples of the form."

Granby Dam

Granby Dam (National ID # CO01656) is an earthfill dam that dams the Colorado River 5.5 miles (8.9 km) northeast of Granby, Colorado in Grand County, Colorado. This 298-foot-tall (91 m) dam was constructed between 1941 and 1950 and has a drainage area of 311 square miles (810 km2). The Granby Dam's reservoir is known as Lake Granby, the largest reservoir component of the Colorado-Big Thompson Project. Lake Granby stores Colorado River water that is diverted under the Continental Divide for agriculture and municipal use within north-eastern Colorado including the cities of Boulder, Fort Collins, Loveland, and Greeley. In addition to the waters of the Colorado, water from Willow Creek just below the dam is pumped up 175 feet (53 m) to Lake Granby. Water from Lake Granby is pumped 125 feet (38 m) higher by the Granby Pumping Plant to the Granby Pump Canal, which extents 1.8 miles (2.9 km) to Shadow Mountain Lake, from which water is diverted through the Alva B. Adams Tunnel to the East Slope. This damsite does not generate any power directly; power is generated at other locations in the Colorado-Big Thompson Project.

Grand Junction Jackalopes

The Grand Junction Jackalopes were an independent baseball team of the Pioneer League, which is not affiliated with Major League Baseball (MLB) but is an MLB Partner League. They were located in Grand Junction, Colorado, and played their home games at Suplizio Field. They were formerly named the Rockies, after the Colorado Rockies, who were their major league affiliate from 2001 to 2020 prior to the league becoming independent. Franchise history The Butte Copper Kings, named for the once-powerful owners of the copper mines of Butte, Montana, began play in the Pioneer League in 1978 as a co-op team with players from the Philadelphia Phillies, Oakland Athletics, Seattle Mariners, and Texas Rangers organizations as well as a few free agents. Beginning in 1987, the franchise had been operated by Silverbow Baseball. It was sold in 1996 to the Goldklang Group in a move necessary to stem conflict-of-interest issues when Silverbow head Jim McCurdy had taken the position of President of the Pioneer League in 1994. Silverbow had attempted to sell the franchise in 1994 to investors from California, but the deal fell through when it was determined that Silverbow owned a lesser percentage of the franchise than he had purported to own. Following the 2000 season, the team relocated to Casper, Wyoming as the Casper Rockies (and was renamed the Ghosts before the 2008 season,) and affiliated with Colorado. On January 13, 2011, Casper Professional Baseball Club, LLC announced the sale of the team to Monfort Investment Group, a group headed by Colorado Rockies General Partners. On October 17, 2011, Grand Junction city officials unanimously approved a lease agreement to the team, making Suplizio Field home to the newly renamed Grand Junction Rockies. In conjunction with a contraction of Minor League Baseball in 2021, the Pioneer League was converted from an MLB-affiliated Rookie Advanced league to an independent baseball league and granted status as an MLB Partner League, with Grand Junction continuing as a member. On November 4, 2022, the team officially announced their new name of the Grand Junction Jackalopes. In 2025, the Jackalopes announced that they would adopt the name Grand Junction Humpback Chubs, after a fish found in the Colorado River, for Wednesday home games. The Jackalopes announced they will be relocating from Grand Junction to a new location in 2026. They were replaced with a travel team for the 2026 season and have yet to reveal their new location.
