Leadville in Colorado is known for many things, but most of all for being the highest city in North America. Previously, this Rocky Mountain destination was the hub of a thriving silver-mining industry that brought wealth and fame to the remote community. But like all boom-and-bust stories, Leadville eventually fell on hard times. Today, however, visitors can relive its glory years thanks to the preservation of some remarkable late 19th-century architecture and a frontier spirit that infuses Leadville with authentic Wild West character.
