Cherry Creek Trail

On warm spring, summer and fall days, the Cherry Creek Trail is where Denver goes to disrobe. Between the joggers, skaters, bicyclists and occasional waders, you're bound to see some skin. Best viewing spots include Confluence Park and the parks behind the Cherry Creek Shopping Center. The latter even includes a small beach where hunks and hunkettes sun themselves, and the grassy hills and terraces make fine outposts for an afternoon of discreet ogling.

Best Place to Check Out the Competition

Loehmann's

Can't tell if that blouse fits just right? Wondering if those pants sag a little in the butt? Just ask one of the ladies next to you in the Loehmann's dressing room -- there should be plenty of them. Rather than offer individual stalls, this popular discount designer clothing store simply has one big cavern where everyone from teenagers, pregnant ladies and grandmothers gathers amid the furnitire, spare clothing racks and mannequins like one big, happy, naked family. Sure, it's a little embarrassing when you realize you're wearing threadbare panties purchased in 1988, but that's a small sacrifice considering the bargains -- and the chance to check out the competition. Now, could you help me with this zipper?
