Trying to plan a solo road trip from LA in late August. I've never been to Colorado, but I'm interested. Is it worth a visit for a few days? What are some surrounding areas with must see views? I also like different food and oh yeah I know next go nothing about Colorado. Thanks!

Check the sidebar. Hope you like green chile on everything!
Here's something I posted a while ago about places to visit while you're in the state.
Sweet. Thanks for the kind response!
Enjoy Colorado!
Denver is awesome. It really depends what you like though. If you're into the bar scene, go to South Broadway. Lots of dive bars. My favorite restaurants here are Steubens, Nicholos Pizza, Irish Snug, and City O City. We have an Alamo Drafthouse too which is a dinner movie theater. Def go if you can but its in Littleton bout a half hour drive. Also, I would highly recommend Boulder. It's amazing in the summer. Lots of restaurants and bars and if you bring a bike, ride around! Especially at night. If you go to a mountain town, go to Estes park. Cute as fuck. Oh and weed. So much weed here brooo. You can check out Mt Evans which is really neat. Or Garden of the Gods. Eledge Gardens is Denvers amusement park and its pretty cool. Keep in mind for some reason we have had an insane amount of rain recently. So it might rain. A little or a lot. Can't really ever tell.
Thanks a lot, very helpful.

Absolutely not. Didn't you hear? The city is gone... it was swept away in the flood. Sorry to break it to ya but you should just stay there.
ummm..... google?
