Georgetown and Silver Plume anchor this high-altitude mining district, showing the lasting imprint of the silver boom on the Colorado Front Range. The famous Georgetown Loop railroad remains a prominent feature, winding its way through the steep valley between the two settlements. This area is a dense network of historic mining claims and tunnels, with labels like the American Sisters Mine, Cleveland Tunnel Mine, and Brazil Shaft Mine dotting the slopes of Democrat Mountain and Republican Mountain.
