“In truth, there is absolutely nothing to shop for that can improve our appearance, because anything we might buy is not us, but merely something hung or gooped on us.”

AANR West Club Highlights

Front Range Naturists

Sequoians is a social nude membership club that caters to its members, affiliated club members, members' guests, and new visitors considering membership. Everyone can enjoy nude recreation in our safe and family-friendly forest park-like setting. Sequoians is a cooperative; members pool together to create fun activities and events — it is also a place where members enjoy days of nude relaxation, tanning, swimming, relaxing in the hot tub, camping, hiking, wildlife, bird watching, lawn games, and other activities.

During the club’s Open Season (April through October) visitors may visit three times on Saturdays, Sundays, or holidays before deciding if they’d like to apply for membership. Membership entitles them to continued access to Sequoians’ grounds for the purpose and enjoyment of nude recreation. https://sequoians.com

Mira Vista Resort

Welcome to Mira Vista – America’s “newest” and “oldest” clothing-optional resort. Mira Vista opened in May of 2006 under a new name and a new policy of wholesome nude recreation on an old property with a history dating back to the 1850s.

The resort is a step back in time, starting with the main building, hacienda, home to the lobby, office, dining room, gift shop, library, and Old West saloon. Fourteen guest suites in original adobe-style buildings are accented with local rock and mortar walls. The 30-acre grounds are filled with mature trees, saguaro cacti, and many other native desert plants. Desert animals and birds are plentiful, and sightings are common in this largely rural area.

It’s hard to believe that this great escape from the city is just 3 miles from Interstate 10. Words and pictures can’t convey all of the special charm and character of this unique resort. Being able to enjoy it all clothes-free just adds to the level of relaxation. Mira Vista is open to day visits. https://miravistaresort.com/

Mira Vista Resort

The Rocky Mountain Naturist Club is an AANR non-landed Club open to everyone, whether a member of the American Association for Nude Recreation or not. Our mission is to promote clean and wholesome social nudism/naturism in the greater Denver area by providing a safe and secure environment for like-minded people to come together and share in family-oriented activities and gatherings.

Our gender-balanced membership consists of a diverse and non-judgmental group of naturists who believe that nudism/naturism is not about sex but about body freedom and unconditional acceptance of the human form regardless of shape, size, skin color, or sexual identification.  We welcome and accept everyone in our club for the people they are, and you will always find a diverse mix of people of all types and backgrounds at our events.

Nudity is always optional at our gatherings. Most people exercise the option to be totally nude, while others may be partially nude. We respect your right to choose the amount of clothing you need for your own level of comfort. There is never any pressure to be totally nude at our events.

Short Story

The Aurora Borealis Night Soiree

Situated in the indomitable wilderness of the far North was a hidden hamlet that bore the mystical allure of the night's greatest spectacle — the Aurora Borealis. The folks living here, an unabashed and eclectic group of naturists, had resolved to throw a night soiree under the veritable dance of these celestial lights.

The aspect of celebrating the relentless beauty of nature, free from the shackles of any clothing under the grandeur of the Northern lights, sparked an indomitable excitement in their hearts. Their leader, an affable man named Orion, had meticulously planned an evening that promised euphoria and memories penned under the green hues of Aurora.

With the sun dipping behind the horizon, the naturists clustered together amidst the ethereal snowscape. Aggregate warmth radiated through their bare bodies. As night fell, the array of ostentation began as the sky adopted diverse hues, the mesmerizing dance of the Aurora Borealis morphing into arches of vivid colors right above their heads.

The constellations twinkling above seemed to guide their celebrations, as their bonfire roared, fistfuls of colors cast into the fire painted the snow-kissed faces in oranges, purples, and greens. The flames crackled, devouring the arctic chill, while their laughter and elated spirits resonated in harmony with the cosmic performances above them.

The feel of snow under their bare feet heightened the sense of their naked existence, a reminder of their vulnerable yet unmasked selves against the backdrop of the vast winter night. It felt like a fitting tribulation to the untamed expanse of ambient nature, elemental yet ethereal.

Using the snow as their canvas, they placed their bodies against its white expanse, creating snow angels. The brisk cold against their skin was titillating, transforming their mundane experience into a moment marked with novelty and exhilaration. Following a ceremonious snowball fight, they huddled together near the warmth of the bonfire again, their laughter dancing with the flames toward the starlit sky.

Under the Aurora's embrace, music and merriment took center stage. As Orion strummed his guitar, the free-spirited naturists swayed and twirled to his melodious tunes, their bare bodies becoming silhouettes against the emerald glow. Their liberated dance looked like a worship of freedom, of nature, of the cosmic grandeur that transcended earthly bindings.

As the soiree continued, they blended their individual experiences into a collective celebration of human existence. Basking in the glory of the naturist tradition, they celebrated the rawness and authenticity of life in all its manifestations.

While glistening snow, beneath the enthralling Aurora Borealis, they shared stories, dreams, and laughter. Their natural state stark against the snow and the sky, they found a profound connection to the universe and to each other.

As dawn approached, the naturists watched the Aurora Borealis begin to fade, but the vivid magnificence of the experience remained imprinted in their hearts. They wrapped up their celebration with a solemn silence, their eyes feasting upon the final visual treat of the retreating Northern lights.

Their Aurora Borealis Night Soiree was more than just a celebration. It was a manifestation of their love for nature, a shared experience that deepened their understanding of the world and their place in it, cementing their bonds with both the earth and the heavens. They did the night goodbye under a deep sense of gratification, covered in snowflakes and stardust, their hearts warmed by a profound serenity that only a brush with unadulterated nature can afford.

The Many Names We Take Pride In

Our organization has undergone significant changes over the past few decades, with a focus on providing more detailed and comprehensive descriptions of the locations where we practice and enjoy our nudist lifestyle. While terms such as "nudist colony" or "nudist camp" may have been accurate in the past, we now prefer the use of terms such as "nudist clubs," "parks," or "resorts," which better reflect the diverse and welcoming nature of our community. Additionally, we have adopted new terminology to describe ourselves, including naturists, nudists, or members of clothing-optional organizations, highlighting the positive and respectful aspects of our lifestyle.

We believe that our lifestyle is grounded in basic human rights, such as the freedom to express oneself and the freedom to be comfortable in one's own skin. Our organization is committed to ensuring that these rights are protected and respected, and we work tirelessly to promote acceptance and understanding of our way of life. In addition to advocating for top freedom, social nudism, and family nudity, we also support a range of initiatives aimed at promoting body positivity and inclusivity, including educational programs, community events, and outreach activities. By working together, we can build a more open and accepting society that values diversity and celebrates the beauty of the human form.
