I've driven under it a million times but never on it, quite an engineering feat in the 1800s, Silver Plume was always a neat little town!! Thanks for these great photos!!

There were mines and mining roads everywhere back then: At the old town of Waldorf, over the mountain from Silver Plume there lots of buildings, some with pots and pans hanging on the walls and old clothes in dressers! I asked my dad if I could take a skillet home and he said, "No son, leave them for other people to see them!" Hah, I'll bet their still hanging there!! LOL

Must have been a great experience. My connection to the area is recent, grown kids moved there for work. My Son has a new fancy off road Jeep, I'm sure he'll be all over the place.
