Gold Camp Road Pictography
Headed west form the city of Colorado Springs, Gold Camp Road is an incredibly scenic way to get to the Cripple Creek/Victor area. It takes longer than using US 24 and SH 67, but the views make up for it quickly. Here's my pictorial essay of the "Trip that bankrupts the english language."
Scenery outweighs roadgeek on this trip, FYI
Page 1. Gold Camp Road, Part 1. This part overlooks the city of Colorado Springs for much of the trip.
Page 2 sees us having to make a detour back into the city to bypass a closed tunnel. While we're here, we'll check out the "Lawn Ornament House."
Page 3. Old Stage Road (Gold Camp's detour route) is traveled upon for your picture viewing pleasure. Yes, the preview pic to the right is of a rock. No, all the pics on this page are not of rocks.
Page 4. Back onto Gold Camp Road, we'll keep on keepin' on.
Page 5. From a seriously hurting tunnel to scenery that'll make ya weep.

All of the picts in this page are mine and mine alone unless otherwise noted. Remember, kids: stealing is bad, mmmm-k? I get quite pissy if things are taken without telling me. I don't like to be pissy. You won't like it either. If you want to link to this page, that's fine. Please shoot me an email beforehand so I can link to your page as well. K? Thanks. --Ryan
