Reputation: 46. Old topic I know, but since I live in Castle Rock, thought I might add my 2 cents (thats 4 cents in Castle Rock, btw). CR is a pretty decent place to live but it is not all all what most would think. First off, CR and the Denver Metro area is mainly high plains terrain with only a view of the mountains. So basically you have shrubs and brown fields, kinda hilly with an occasionally small forested area (Castle Pines).

It is the longest vein in the human body, extending from the top of the foot to the upper thigh and groin.
