We overnighted in the historic (and some say haunted) Delaware Hotel. We ate breakfast at the Golden Burro Cafe next door.

Leadville is a town that was established out of the boom/ bust cycle of various mining stories. Leadville has the Museum of Mining and Hall of Fame. This is an extensive museum and really deserves a look.

We drove around Leadville and ended up finding this view of the town with the mountains in the background. Leadville is high at 10,200 feet, so be careful.  I ended up selecting this photo as my photo of the day.

For any return back to Denver, I had to take this photo of Eisenhower Tunnel. Kevin was driving.
