The Nixxer of Alma - A Colorado Legend
Gold was discovered in Colorado in 1859. But the Pikes Peak or Bust gold rush was interrupted by The Civil War. After the Civil War, seven of ten prospectors who came out to strike it rich was a former slave.
This piece is about one known in Alma and Breckenridge as The Nigger. Nobody knew his real name. He was liked and respected, and staked a claim high above timberline in the Mosquito Range between the two towns. One day he simply vanished. Foul play? Struck it rich and left town? Nobody knew what happened. Nowadays people hike by his claim, often wondering what happened here?

Democrat, Cameron, Lincoln, Bross - Colorado 14er Dayhike
Mount Lincoln, along with its neighbors Cameron, Democrat and Bross is a 7.25 mile round trip hike popular with 14er hikers. Throughout my video, you can see the mountains are are pockmarked with old mines, and much of the land is owned privately by mining companies. In the summer of 2005, these landowners denied access to the peaks by hikers and climbers, fearing liability in the case of injury, and citing the particular dangers due to the presence of old mine workings. On August 1, 2006, the town of Alma signed a deal to lease the peaks for a nominal fee, to reduce the potential liability to the owners and free up the peaks for recreational access
FOUR 14ERS
FOUR 14ERS
On July 15, 2011 I set out from Colorado Springs, CO to a gulch near Alma, CO called the Kite Lake Trailhead. I passed through the Pike National Forest, South Park, FairPlay and ultimately Alma, a town of just 270 people that sits at 10,580 ft. above sea level. You’d never know that just over Hoosier Pass, 17 miles north, was Breckenridge, CO without looking at a map. I stopped there for a beer before heading up the pass to set up camp for the night. My tent was assembled at 12,020 ft. above sea level that night.
By morning a dozen more cars had arrived full of eager hikers. We were all there to climb four 14,000+ ft. peaks known locally as “14ers. This group of peaks are the tallest in the state of Colorado, and only bested by Californias Mt. Whitney, which means Colorado had the next 52 tallest peaks in the country. The group I was hiking that morning is known as the Mosquito Range, and included Mt. Democrat, Mt. Cameron, Mt. Lincoln and Mt. Bross. I woke that morning to hike all four of those peaks that day, doubling my total, and final, 14er count to eight.
Last night, almost five years later, I found the footage from that day.
Mt Democrat, CO - Quick Run Downhill
After hiking up Mt Democrat from the trailhead to the summit at 14,154 feet we came back down quickly and go a little running in on the few flatter sections.
Fun trail - about 5 miles round trip from the trail head. Approximately 2100 feet elevation gain.
On the left in the shot you can see down the valley towards Alma, CO and Fairplay, CO.

Description
Bristlecone Pines of Mount Bross
Bristlecone Pines are the oldest known living things, and the oldest trees in Colorado are found on the east and west slopes of Mount Bross.
While the politics of land ownership, safety and mining claims stopped people from the ability to reach and enjoy this summit, reaching a summit is not always a mountain's gem to behold. On Mt. Bross the Bristlecone pine groves are a fine trade off. To walk among trees that were old when Christ taught His Disciples is a privilege.
Mt. Bross may be closed for other reasons. The Alma King, world's largest and finest rhodocrosite crystal was found in the Sweet Home Mine, and there is interest in the specimen mineral potential inside Mt. Bross. The Bross summit can be reached by jeep, so potential for unwanted mineral exploration by land owners is understandable, especially considering the unfolding disaster on Mt. Antero due to the hit show, Prospectors.
