A popular tourist destination in Colorado Springs for many years. Includes balanced rocks, unusual shapes, and the "Kissing Camels" at the top of the tallest formation. The land was donated to the city 100 years ago by descendants of the owner. Trails around the park are paved for wheelchair access, and it was bequeathed with the stipulation that it be forever free to the public.
