The Cripple Creek District, on the back of Pikes Peak in central Colorado, first found fame through Bob Womack, the cowboy who publicized his knowledge of gold in the high country and drew thousands to the area. Gold fever allowed the region to flourish, while strikes, fires, and economic hardships threatened the district’s survival. The dwindling populationís fortitude, plus innovative ideas to boost the economy, carried the city from a struggling gold-minersí paradise to a favored tourist spot.
