You should visit Colorado for sure of you love hiking and the outdoors! There is plenty to do in Denver, and the mountain towns are fun, too. There are lots of trails and beautiful parks! Plus, the Appalachians are pretty, but are sort of more like hills than mountains. I'd be happy to give you more information if you'd like.
I have lead Mtn Bike Expeditions from Steamboat Springs to Salida 5 times following the Great Divide Bike Trail---- I have also spent many days riding trails in Tennessee and North Carolina. I can assure you that what they have in the Appalachian Mountains are indeed Mountains. Sure 14000 compared to 6,600 is a big difference. You have to realize that low country anywhere farther west than kansas is at 5000 ft before you come to the mountains. low country in Tennessee is 100 feet and NC is 0 feet. I have climbed to Clinkmans Dome 6600 ft on my Bike and there is not a climb to compare in Colorado. Pikes Peak climb is gradual by comparison.
