Cliff jump into water?  There is some cool ones at Green Mountain Resavour,,,thats north of Silverthorne about 20 miles or so, cool place to camp also.   If you like to mountian bike, Heartman rocks is cool to go and you can camp there also.  St Marry's glacier is cool to hike and ski in the summer time, thats off of I70 right after the third Idaho Springs exit if your going West..

The best thing about Boulder in the summer is unquestionable:

Tube the Boulder Creek

Tubes for sale at the little gas station at Arapahoe and Broadway

boulder definately has some weirdos but it makes the town more interesting to me. there are definately a ton of great, down to earth people and i've made a ton of good friends since i've been here less then a year. i can't wait till it's a little warmer so i can float down the creek haha i live right next to it at 11th and marine its like 2 minutes from my front door.

-Go cliff jumping at Pueblo Resevior
-Go see a concert or a movie at Red Rocks Amphitheatre
-Mountain bike...pretty much anywhere (you can go do some sick downhill at Keystone for like $15)
-Raft at Buena Vista or Canyon City (You can raft some sick class V rapids 1000 feet under Royal Gorge Bridge for about $40 all day)
-Go to a Rockies game
-Water World is actually a pretty fun park
-Get shit faced in Boulder or Fort Collins
-Sky dive north of Denver (I forget the name of the company)

Your first jump has to be a tandem, and thats $200.  After that they become cheaper if you're doing the training to be certified, but you don't get to freefall as much.
