Silverton, Colorado
The epitome of a quaint mountain town, Silverton has all the characteristics of a former western mining town. Nestled in the heart of the San Juan Mountains, Silverton is also an outdoor destination for snowmobiling, helicopter skiing, ATV riding, horseback riding, and many more activities.
Red Mountain Pass
Red Mountain Pass is the highlight of the Million Dollar Highway, characterized by its steep grade, many turns, and deep drops just off the road. This section of highway passes abandoned mining buildings and is aptly named for the red color of rock seen from much of the road.
