Previously, we have discussed the State Parks in Colorado that one can visit for viewing 2045 Solar Eclipse. In another article, we have taken a look at the public lands, which include National Parks and other government owned land in Colorado that are in totality for the 2045 solar eclipse. In this article, we are going to take a deeper look and examine the Colorado cities that will have 100% totality for the 2045 solar eclipse. The times shown are in mountain daylight time.

We are looking at the largest cities in regards to population in Colorado; therefore, there might be some cities that we are don’t include but are in totality. These 4 cities have an average of 240 seconds of totality, which is 4 minutes, 0 seconds per city.

Please be aware that only the southern part of Denver is in totality. Therefore, assume that Denver isn’t in totality to avoid damage to the eyes unless you verify that you’re in the proper location.
