Anyone know decent places around the Leadville, CO area?

Probably camping near there, curious of any good spots. Haven't had the time to scout anything specific. Any ideas? Thanks!

Cottonwood pass and mount princeton are worth the time and a few other places around buena vista as well, but I'm not help directly for the leadville area

I highly recommend Twin Lakes, especially this time of year. Here's a shot I got a while back of the small farmhouse right in town.... I hope it's still there! If you go that way, just keep going up the road to the top of Independence Pass.

I haven't spent much time there, but Leadville has some neat old buildings. If I were there for several days, I'd talk to the Jeep rental guys about mining trails near there. Then I'd rent a Jeep and get out there.

I don't need to rent a Jeep, got something better

I'll be hitting Ptarmigan Pass, Lime Creek, Benson Cabin, McAllister Gulch and Mosquito Pass.

I'll bet you get some great scenery. Have fun.
