Montezuma

Montezuma occupies a high mountain valley at the headwaters of the Snake River in Colorado’s Summit County. Near the Continental Divide and at roughly 10,200 feet (3,109 metres), this small settlement sits amid steep, forested slopes and alpine country rather than the busier resort corridors along Interstate 70. Montezuma began as a mining camp during Colorado’s nineteenth-century silver boom, and its compact streets retain traces of that frontier-era past. Peru Creek meets the Snake River here, while unpaved mountain roads continue into former mining terrain beyond town.
