There are so many cool things about the Western Slope, we feel lucky to live here. I asked you to tell us one cool thing about the Western Slope on our Facebook, and let's just say we have way more than one.

From the Mesa to the weather, there is a lot to love about the Western Slope. Here's why the Western Slope is the coolest, according to you.
