| "Leadville Boom Days" is a historical celebration of the Old West , with gunslingers, burro races, contests, car shows, and a street fair with a multitude of food and craft booths. Leadville is two miles above sea level at 10.200 ft. It is about 25 min. north of Buena Vista. When we got there at 9 am it was 55 degrees, and it didn't warm up much throughout the day :). |

| Several side streets were packed with vendors. |
