City/town information

Located at the base of Pikes Peak, the historic mining town of Cripple Creek is surrounded by majestic mountains and breathtaking scenic views. The boom of Colorado’s Gold Rush put Cripple Creek on the map. More than 100 years ago, this mining community attracted thousands of gold-seekers in search of their fortunes, and you can still do that there today in the town's casinos and gaming halls. My personal favorite is the Donkey Derby Days or Cripple Creek & Victor Narrow Gauge Railroad, Mollie Kathleen Gold Mine, Butte Opera House. I also love the local shops. Its a beautiful drive in the Fall!
