Idaho Springs is a historic city located in Clear Creek County, Colorado, approximately 30 miles west of Denver. Founded during the Pikes Peak Gold Rush in 1859, it initially served as a supply town and staging area for miners heading to the goldfields. The city’s development was heavily influenced by its location along Clear Creek, which powered mining operations and later provided hydroelectric power. Today, Idaho Springs retains much of its Victorian architecture and functions as a popular tourist destination known for its hot springs, outdoor recreational opportunities including whitewater rafting and hiking, and proximity to the Rocky Mountains. The city's downtown area is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
