[edit] History

[edit] Origin

Garden of the Gods was originally created as part of a large dumping project by the people of Arizona when they dug out the Grand Canyon back in 1804. Wagon trains moving north were originally instructed to bring the rocks to what is now known as Canada, in an effort to get rid of wagon loads of miscreants and deviants. On arriving in Colorado, the harsh winter killed off all the oxen leaving the rocks stranded in the middle of Colorado Springs.

[edit] Rediscovery

In August of 1859, two men stumbled into the area. If it hadn't been for alcohol and not asking for directions, it's quite possible that it may never have been discovered and the original inhabitants might still be alive.

[edit] The Name

Garden of the Gods gets its name from the original British translation of "Garden of the Gods", which litterally means a garden maintained by the gods.

[edit] Tourism

Often mistaken for a tourist attraction, Garden of the Gods accounts for nearly .00000713% of Colorado's annual tourism dollars, mostly in the form of recycled broken beer bottles and loose change found in the parking lot. Two visitor centers operate within the park, where due to a legal loop hole, segregation was never ended. This goes largely unnoticed as no one actually ever goes into them.

[edit] Famous Formations

[edit] Kissing Camels

Garden of the Gods is probably most famous for the 'Kissing Camels' rock formation, named so because, with a little imagination and some mind altering drugs, it bears a striking resemblance to Warren Beatty in Ishtar, which also had it's fair share of camels and kissing. Controversy arose when local Religious organization, Focus on the Family, discovered that both Camels were in fact males. Feeling that the park was leading Americans into a new age Polytheism and Homosexuality, they are now leading an effort to have one of the Camels removed and the park to be renamed to 'Garden of the One True God'. Incidentally, Camels don't store water in their humps... what are you thinking?

[edit] Balanced Rock

This picture was taken moments before the world famous 'Ed's Big Rock' tipped over and crushed two geology students and brothers, Supanufon and Harry Balanced. "Ed's Big Rock' has since been renamed 'Balanced Rock' in honor of their sacrifices and pilgramiges are held annually by the small but growing "Families Who's Family Members Have been Crushed by Big Rocks" support group, also known as FWFMHBCBBR.
