Overlanding & Exploring the mining history on the Alpine Loop from Lake City to Engineer Pass

“Let the rivers clap their hands, Let the mountains sing together for joy”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭98‬:‭8‬

In this third episode of our 2023 Alpine Loop Adventure, we make our way from Cuba Gultch to Lake City and over Engineer Pass while exploring numerous historic mining sights including the Golconda Boarding House along with some incredible waterfalls. We also test our vehicles and ourselves with some challenging offroading down Mineral Creek on our way to Poughkeepsie Gultch.
