Leadville is a great historic mining town that sits above 10,000 feet. There is much to do and see here. If the Unsinkable Molly Brown and Doc Holliday spent time here, so should you. Leadville serves as a base camp for a multitude of adventures and exploring in the surrounding area!

Leadville is an old mining boomtown now trying to be a tourist town. Stop here for gas and supplies for your adventures in the Upper Arkansas Valley.
