Antonito, Colorado, is an outdoor lover's paradise throughout the year. Enthusiasts pull out their snowmobiles and snowshoes in winter, mountain climbing and fishing gear in summer, photographic equipment in fall. Those who lean more toward bookish pursuits can enjoy a brush with history at the home of boxing great Jack Dempsey, just 10 miles distant in Manassa, then take a ride on the narrow gauge railroad. Either way, campers can always find a place to stay in the RV parks around Antonito.
