If "lighting off fireworks" means using bottle-rockets, mortars, roman candles, Black Cats, fountains and the like, than the short answer is "nowhere." According to Colorado law the only fireworks allowed for personal use in the state cannot explode, nor can they leave the ground and fly through the air. Firecrackers, rockets of any kind, and mortars are also illegal everywhere in Colorado. On top of that, many cities in the counties in the state have even more strict rules, some going so far as to ban all fireworks.

Listen everyone, there's a huge dilemma on hand. The 4th of July is only a day away, and we have one question for you: what the heck are you gonna wear?! If you're like us and have zero idea, don't panic. We're here to help.

While some places have cancelled fireworks because of the high fire danger, many places are still having them. Many of the wildfires are coming under control and Colorado tourism is open for business. Where will this 4th of July take you?

Fireworks may have originally been a product of China, but there is nothing more American than setting these babies on fire for July 4th. Alcohol also happens to be a big part of our Independence Day traditions, and when booze is combined with firecrackers things can get pretty messy.
