The twin Spanish Peaks in southern Colorado, towering at 13,623 feet, have historically attracted various groups, including Native Americans, Spanish explorers, and migrants on the Santa Fe Trail. These majestic mountains served as a landmark for travelers seeking gold and new opportunities. The arrival of coal mining and railroads in the 1870s ushered in a new era of settlement.
