This elaborate fountain is in the open courtyard of the Hotel Colorado in Glenwood Springs. The fountain only runs in the summer due to the freezing temperatures during the winter. There are koi in the pond surrounding the fountain. According to the hotels website,

"The south court, the current courtyard, had a large pool in its center from which an electrically lit fountain shot a jet of water 185 feet high into the air, making an iridescent rainbow spray against the sunlight. Situated in the existing lounge, a sheet of water twelve-feet broad dropped in a waterfall a distance of twenty-five feet from the rear-wall rim to a pool beneath. Guests could sit beside the pool in the early morning catching trout enough for their breakfast. (visit link) "
