The Cripple Creek Mining District is located
a little west for Colorado Springs (5989 feet.) in Colorado, USA. About 75 miles south of Denver. It
is made up of 3 towns, Cripple Creek,
Goldfield and Victor. It used to be several smaller towns, but today I guess
those above are the ones left.
The
towns/cities/settlements/stations/depots included in my modeling projects are as following:
The Cripple Creek - Victor District:
In 1902-03
there was 20 communities in the Cripple Creek - Victor district, and the
total population of the district was approximately 35675
people.

Love, 75 (not really inside the
District, but close enough)
Victor, including Lawrence, Portland Station, Strong's Camp, and
Hollywood, 10000
