Graham Gulch
Leadville, CO
Graham Gulch
This little-known hike follows an old logging road along a high mountain valley south of Independence Pass. All along the way, you will spot saddle-notched platforms that look like cabin foundations. In fact, these are old timber landings, upon which logs were stacked to await shipment. Logging may have begun here as early as the 1880s, during the boom years of mining in Independence and Twin Lakes.
