Another Trip To Teller City

We left Rand on Monday for a day trip to Teller City, over Calamity Pass (high clearance vehicle recommended), into Gould, on to Walden for lunch then back to Rand.  The trip was about 65 miles round trip and took about 4 hours with stops for photos and lunch.  The goal was to retake the photo of Teller that's on display at the North Park Museum.

Even though the old town is all but gone, there is a one room cabin that has been kept in tact, a few building foundations, walking path and informational signs to give the visitor a sense of what the old town was like.
To get there:  drive 2 miles south of Rand on highway 125, turn left onto county road 21 (near The Old Homestead Lodge)  continue on for approximately 9 miles.  The county road turns into forest service road 740.  At the forest boundary there will be signs to guide you.  Enjoy your visit!
