Historic Downtown Idaho Springs, CO Walking Tour 2022 4K

Walking tour of the Historic Downtown area of Idaho Springs in the Fall of 2022. Walking down Miners street to see all the local businesses and culture. Founded 163 years ago in 1859 by prospectors during the early days of the Pike's Peak Gold Rush, Idaho Springs was at the center of the region's mining district throughout the late nineteenth century. The Argo Tunnel drained and provided access to many lodes of ore between Idaho Springs and Central City. During the late twentieth century, the town evolved into a tourist center along U.S. Highway 6 and U.S. Highway 40, which ascend Clear Creek Canyon through the historic mining district. The town today is squeezed along the north side of Interstate 70, with a historical downtown in the central portion, a strip of tourist-related businesses on its eastern end, and mostly residences on its western end. It also serves as a bedroom community for workers at the Loveland Ski Area farther up the canyon. The town today is the largest community in Clear Creek County, but, for historical reasons, the county seat has remained at Georgetown.
