About Leadville:At the hub of the Top of the Rockies Byway is the historic city of Leadville, North America's highest incorporated city (10,430 feet elevation), and the frontier West's wildest, richest, silver mining boom town. Self-described as quaint, and absolutely original, Leadville has been designated as a National Historic Landmark District. Seventy square blocks of Victorian architecture and the adjoining twenty square mile Leadville mining district - a fascinating graveyard of frontier mining - distinguish Leadville as having maintained its character without exploiting its treasures. One of America's last remaining authentic mining towns, Leadville's wealth of historical attractions range from the federally chartered National Mining Hall of Fame Museum to the Healy House & Dexter Cabin State Museum, a three-story Victorian boarding house. Once a city of near 30,000, many famous people got their start in Leadville including J.J. & Molly Brown, H.A.W. Tabor, Guggenheim, and Boettcher. Famous visitors include Doc Holliday, Kit Carson, Buffalo Bill and Texas Jack. |
