    Tips

    November 19, 2023

    Georgetown was founded in 1859 during the Colorado Gold Rush by George and David Griffith, two prospectors from Kentucky. After 1864, gold and silver ore was mined in countless mines around Georgetown. The town itself was not a mining camp, but a center for the ore miners and prospectors.

    Today, the town has a really nice atmosphere and you can still take a ride with the old steam train. There is also a very nice brewery at the north end of the town.
