THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOUR ARRIVAL
The location of Leadville, Colorado means that each and every season here comes with its own distinct benefits. For many visitors, that offers the opportunity to make several visits a year, and enjoy distinctly different experiences.
Regardless of the season you visit in, make sure you prepare yourself accordingly. If you’re coming in the summer, make sure you pack sunscreen. And if you’re here in the early spring or late fall, bring plenty of warm clothes as the evenings can be chilly.
