-Red Mountain (Manitou Springs)
-Mt. Manitou (right behind Rocky Mountain if you do the Incline)
-Mays Peak and/or Mt. Buckhorn (N. Cheyenne Canyon Park)
-Raspberry Mountain (on the back side of Pikes Peak south of Divide.

-- Mount Muscoco loop via Mt. Cutler/Daniel's Pass
-- Tenney Crags from Captain Jack's
-- Kineo Mountain loop via Seven Bridges/Captain Jack's
-- 8130 via Section 16 and Palmer/Red Rock loop
Recent snow may make it a bit tough though
These are all totally classic! Good calls. Great places.
Agree about the snow. More here than typical this time of year.
Really, seems like way more. Gold Camp was scary on the bike today, even with studs. And forget High Drive.
