I second Dinosaur Ridge (make sure to also check out the Lykins Stromatolites across the road at Red Rocks while you're there). For a definitive compilation of other local sites I highly recommend this book co-written by CU prof. Lon Abbott. Back when I was at CU we taught our intro field classes using Lon's curriculum based around many of the sites he talks about in there. You can access a truly amazing variety of geologic history within an hour or so of Denver using that book as your guide. Assuming, like /u/mokoroko points out, that snow doesn't foil your plans. Hope you have a great visit!

I personally love this book. Lon Abbott is able to explain things very clearly, and not just in this book that is about the geological history of the Colorado front range, but in any of his books.
