Czego oczekiwać

Upper Gold Camp Road

Tunele drogowe Gold Camp zostały zbudowane w XIX wieku, aby wesprzeć trwającą gorączkę złota Pike's Peak. Łącząc Cripple Creek i Colorado Springs, na trasie, która obecnie nazywa się Gold Camp Road, położono linię kolejową. Znana jako „krótka linia”, usługi kolejowe rozpoczęto w 1901 r., kiedy to 200 wagonów towarowych przewoziło minerały, zapasy i ludzi na całym obszarze. Rzekome nawiedzenie tuneli drogowych Gold Camp od dziesięcioleci kusi ciekawskich do zbadania, z wieloma miejskimi mitami otaczającymi „opuszczone” tunele. Być może najbardziej znany mit o tym obszarze dotyczy zawalenia się tunelu w 1988 roku i głosi, że autobus pełen dzieci w wieku szkolnym utknął i zginął podczas wypadku. Chociaż nie ma wzmianki o takim incydencie, niektórzy goście tuneli drogowych Gold Camp twierdzili, że opuścili ten obszar z drobnymi odciskami dłoni na swoich samochodach od duchów zmarłych.

Upper Gold Camp Road

The Gold Camp Road Tunnels were constructed during the 1800s to help support the ongoing Pike’s Peak Gold Rush. Connecting Cripple Creek and Colorado Springs, a railway was laid down on the route that is now Gold Camp Road. Known as the “Short Line,” train service began in 1901, with 200 freight cars used to haul minerals, supplies, and people throughout the area. The supposed haunting of the Gold Camp Road Tunnels has beckoned the curious to investigate for decades, with many urban myths surrounding the “abandoned” looking tunnels. Perhaps the best-known myth about the area relates to the 1988 tunnel collapse and claims that a bus full of school children became stuck and killed during the accident. While there is no record of such an incident occurring, some visitors of the Gold Camp Road Tunnels have claimed to have left the area with tiny handprints on their cars from the spirits of the deceased.

Our guides were fantastic! This was by far the best tour we could find becase: - It was all downhill - The trails are challenging but not too hard (they are wide most of the way) - The guides had water and supplies and were beside us the entire way - You ride all the way from the top of the mountain back to the bike store itself (very convenient)

We took out cross country team to do some altitude training. David and Luke did a fantastic job with our kids. They were able to let the more experienced riders stretch their horizons and the slower more careful riders felt supported too. They were respectful, helpful, and the kids enjoyed every second. Thank you for making our trip memorable.
