....One on Academy the other, Skate City I think, off Colorado blvd., once agin I'm guessing.

I lived in CS during the disco era and both those places were busy on Friday & Saturday nights.
I remember when Mall of the Bluffs had a theater, apparently it's been leveled.
Ski Broadmoor, almost every Friday night if there was snow, with my buddy Scott. I had my 'rock' skis and trashed the bottoms there and Ski Pikes Peak for a quick & cheap skiing fix.
Anyone remember Pikes Peak's ski area? I worked there a couple summers as a kid doing gopher work for the owners.
