YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

August 1 is Colorado Day.

The Centennial State first joined the union on Aug. 1, 1876 thanks to Proclamation 230, which was signed by President Ulysses S. Grant.

As settlers from the eastern United States ventured westward, forts were created throughout the American West including Fort Collins, Fort Garland, Fort Lupton and Fort Vasquez in Colorado.

9NEWS Photojournalist Matt Bell dives into Colorado's rich history and shows us these four forts in Colorado.
