Day 13: Alamosa to Denver back to Chicago

On Sunday, September 25, 2022, I embarked on the final leg of my two-week hiking adventure in Colorado. After checking out of the hotel at 10:30am, I drove 2.5 hours to Phantom Canyon Brewing Company in Colorado Springs, renowned as the city's oldest brewery. Housed in the historic Cheyenne building, constructed in 1901, Phantom Canyon Brewing Company offers award-winning craft beer and delicious food.

After savoring the experience, I drove the additional 1.5 hours to return the car at the Enterprise Rent-a-Car facility at the Denver airport and fly home.
