Hahn’s Peak, Colorado, Old Gold Mining Town
Monday, October 27th, 2008“Go west, my man”, cried the old timer. “There’s gold in them hills!”
Hahn’s Peak
For centuries this land was summer range for bands of Ute Indians. Later, pathfinders, guides, explorers and fur trappers followed wild game trails and reported to the world the natural wealth and primitive beauty of the area.
Saturday Drive turns into Cattle Drive in Colorado
Sunday, October 26th, 2008A perfect day for a drive, slightly cool, but sunny and clear, blue skies as Dalton and I headed north on Elk River Road, Hwy 129, to reach our destination of Hahn’s Peak, an old gold mining town.

The same is mindful of new, modern convenience stores with their touch screens to order food, rows upon rows of cooler doors that makes a decision [...]

Estes Park’s Haunted Stanley Hotel and other Ghostly Hauntings around Colorado
Wednesday, October 8th, 2008It seems I’m stuck like a needle in the groove of an old 45 record as I continue to muse about ghosts and hauntings after my recent experiences during hunting season. But I assure you, whether you believe and find yourself grossly awed by my current article, or just highly amused because you think its [...]
