Then I discovered this news story mostly about the earthquake, there!!! @ https://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/local-news/small-earthquakes-rattle-glenwood-springs-area

So it turned out that The epicenter of the Colorado Earthquake on Tuesday, is a VOLCANO there!!! Last known eruption around 2000 years ago, but could erupt again at any moment according to Me!!! Here's a story where I got that info@ https://www.denverpost.com/2018/12/11/earthquakes-glenwood-springs/ AND Here's the Wikipedia story about that Volcano, there@ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dotsero
~~~SO, that is still the most active, or perhaps ONLY active volcano in Colorado, but here's one that looks like it was the BIGGEST EVER Volcano Eruption in Colorado that also came up in the middle of todays search there@ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Garita_Caldera

I was not able to find any pics of that volcano that weren't copyrighted and no USGS Pics, so instead lets go ahead with. . .
