San Francisco?!?! LOL never heard someone say SF was so polluted they couldn't see the mountains,maybe you experienced this fog phenomenon I've heard about.
And diversity as in terrain,people,everything.
Here is 2 pics from today,what I considered a particularly smoggy day.
Those where both taken standing in the same exact spot btw.
Nice pictures but you can see the mountains MUCH better from the front range of Colorado!
As far as diverstiy the terrrain in Colroado ranks up there as just as diverse. As far as people and everything else that is where my point stands about adding 30 million people to our state and again I say no thank you!

No argument with that,Denver is lucky in that it's such a clean city,whereas LA has gotten better,Denver hasn't gotten bad at all so it's clear and beautiful all the time.
Dude, how is CO more diverse than CA. CA has everything CO has and then some. Where is the coastline in CO? Take the coastline from SF then drive east and you'd see more diversity than CO. CO has diversity and the Rockies are beautiful. But once you get to the Plains, it is just that, plain.

There are some nice mesas and desert area around Grand Junction,but yeah your right.

I do not see that at all. You have no coastline to begin with, Colorado does not have the variety in climates CA has, and different landscapes. CA has the lowest point in the western hemisphere (Death Valley) and the highest point in the continental US (Mt Whitney), places that get over 100" of rain a year to places that get less than 5". No state in the nation has the diversity of climates and terrain as CA.

Not even close.
And 30 million people in Colorado? LOL
Give it 5 million more and you'd have chaos.
(which is only a matter of time)

The only thing we don't have is a coast line that is why I said almost, everything else we do have. Lakes, deserts, plains, mountains, grass land, sand dunes, etc all within a few hour drive.
The lack of a coastline is why we have better skiing as that makes the air more dry and the reason Colorado gets the Champaign powder we are famous for. Personally, I would rather have that over a coast line any day.
As far as growth, I can see us growing 5 million because of all the people leaving California to come to Colorado. In fact in Pueblo alone some Las Vegas Developers are developing the states largest tech park and will get California companies to move, that alone should add thousands of people to the Pueblo metro area.
^^ The Fact that a lot of people are moving out of CA to places with cheaper Cost of living CA still gains more pop Than it loses each year.Growth hmm... Good for Pueblo Their metro might hit 12 million.

So you say you don't want CO to grow and CA is too big but then you are happy CO is Growing and that CA is losing population because of it? LOL
fine by me.
