Property Description
When prospectors journeyed west under the rallying cry "Pike's Peak or Bust," Nevadaville emerged as one of Colorado Territory's important early mining towns. Today, it remains an evocative ghost town. The assemblage extends from Prosser Gulch through Nevadaville Valley, climbs Quartz Hill, and continues south toward Alps Hill-creating an extraordinary cross-section of Colorado mining history.
The property reads as an open-air museum. Included are portions of historic Main Street, the Bon Ton Saloon, iconic Pozo Shaft House, and extensive remnants of mining activity. Massive boilers, steam pumps, sheave wheels, wagon roads, hand-hewn timbers, and the historic Gilpin Tramway grade remain visible throughout the landscape.
Today, forest, mining features, and industrial artifacts coexist across the property, preserving an unusually intact mining landscape. Potential opportunities include thoughtful development, historic preservation, heritage tourism, a private legacy estate, conservation, and future mineral exploration, subject to applicable approvals and independent buyer verification.
