Indecent exposure can be a misdemeanor or a felony.
Indecent exposure typically is a class 1 misdemeanor, and occurs when a person knowingly exposes his genitals to the view of any person under circumstances in which such conduct is likely to cause affront or alarm to the other person.
However, indecent exposure becomes a class 6 felony if the accused has two previous convictions for indecent exposure, in Colorado or in any other state.
A conviction for indecent exposure does require sex offender registration.
