Ghostly tales of Colorado’s colorful—and chilling—past . . . photos included! From the old gold-mining towns of Summit County to skiing destinations in Breckenridge, eerie and true tales of life and loss in the Wild West abound in this corner of Colorado. The spirit of mutilated miner William Goodwin is said to haunt Blue River, warning of the dangers lurking below. Some say that the ghost of the widow Sylvia, who died destitute and alone at a boarding house on Main Street, still haunts the building today. Coldblooded killer Dr. Condon took revenge on his stalker and killed the town’s favorite barkeeper. In this fascinating book, tour guide and author Gail Westwood explores the area’s most haunted buildings and introduces the ghastly characters who seemingly never left.

"Coleman traces skiing from its Norse roots and Alpine influences through the utility of ski travel in the winter Rockies to the rise of Colorado resorts. Much more than a history of the sport, her work explains how the recreation industry sold the experience of skiing and created mythic mountain landscapes with real problems - and a ski culture that exalts celebrity and status over the physical act of skiing."--Jacket.
