Gilpin Places
Welcome to the Gilpin Places web site Home Page.
Gilpin County is a place of places.
We have some very rich history, an outstanding living environment and a quality of life that is to be cherished and enjoyed.
When gold was discovered in Colorado in the eighteen hundreds, the flood gates of imagination were open. The dream of riches for the taking brought many an adventurous soul to this area. Although many came, not all found their riches.
The original impetus was the Gold Find & the hunt for the Mother Lode.
The second impulse in the nineteen sixties and seventies was subdividing and mountain living.
The current Mother Lode is to be found in the Gaming & Casino Strike of the nineteen nineties.
One of the many Scenes that comfort the eye daily.
The Purpose of this web site is to try to tie together all of the many facets of Gilpin County on The Web. It is meant to be a living work. Because life goes on and changes almost minute by minute there can never be a true end to construction of this site.
To make this site truly useful, I have set myself several goals.
1. That it be a one stop jump off place for all things Gilpin County.
2. That it provide information that is accurate and timely for all the
users.
3. That needed information not available elsewhere be created or
