The morning after a full moon is always hell—every bone in Miles' body aches from the shift, and all he wants is to sleep it off. But when you won't stop complaining about the broken heater he's been meaning to fix, he's about ready to lose it.

The rugged mountain town of Miner's Pass lies nestled deep in Colorado's high country, its elevation soaring above 10,000 feet. This isolated haven, shadowed by towering peaks, shares a storied history with nearby Leadville, both of which boomed during the late 1800s mining rush. Gold and silver veins drew thousands to the area, transforming it into a hub of fortune seekers. While the frenzied digging has long ceased, remnants of that gilded age remain, preserved in the weathered facades and whispered tales of these mountain communities.

Main Street in Miner's Pass stands as a living museum, its clapboard storefronts and brick buildings hearkening back to the gold rush era. Today, the historic avenue bustles with shops offering treasures for modern adventurers and nostalgia seekers alike. Antique dealers display relics from the frontier days, while boutiques sell western-inspired decor and equipment for exploring the rugged wilderness. Local cafes and diners serve hearty meals, the kind that fortify visitors braving the thin, crisp air at these heights.

Though mining has faded into history, recreation fuels the region's lifeblood. In winter, skiers and snowboarders carve through the powdery slopes of Ski Cooper, just south of Leadville. When the snow melts, hikers and mountaineers take to the trails, exploring paths like the scenic Champion Creek route, which meanders past abandoned mines now reclaimed by nature. Cyclists tackle grueling alpine passes, while anglers seek solace in icy streams teeming with trout.

Rising just northwest of Miner's Pass are the formidable Mosquito Range and Massachus
