Besides all the fun things to do around Cripple Creek, and gambling in our new (and historic) casinos, we have a rich gold mining history to share with you. A cowboy named Bob Womack had been searching for gold for nearly 15 years and finally discovered the precious metal in 1890 in Poverty Gulch, which later became the town of Cripple Creek.
Between 1890 and 1910 thousands of prospectors flocked to the region dubbed the “World’s Greatest Gold Camp.” More than 22,400,000 ounces of gold (approximately $11.2 billion in today’s dollars) was extracted from more than 500 mines in the Cripple Creek and Victor region. However, by the early 1940’s gold production was down to less than one percent of what it once was and by 1990, the town was almost dead with only 600 residents. In 1991 with legalized gambling, the town was revitalized and many of the historic buildings were refurbished as casinos.
The Cripple Creek Historic District is designated as a National Historic Landmark by the National Park Service. Today’s visitors can experience the rich Cripple Creek history through its unique shops, attractions and museums.

Time: The round-trip journey takes about 2-3 hours, not including stops for photos, time spent at the summit and other activities.
Fuel: There are no gas stations along the highway. Be sure that you have at least 1/2 tank of gas before you start your scenic drive.
Elevation gain: The highway's entrance begins at 7,400 feet and climbs all the way up to 14,115 feet to the summit of the mountain.
ACTIVITIES & RECREATION NEAR PIKES PEAK HIGHWAY
Fishing - there are three lakes available for fishing. Crystal Reservoir and North and South Catamount Reservoirs, all located in what is called the North Slope Recreation Area. For more information about fishing, go here: ColoradoSprings.gov
