Description
The Road that Silver Built, runs north and south directly through the San Juan Mountains of Southwestern Colorado - some of the most beautiful and rugged country in all of North America, if not the world. However, there would be no road today if it were not for the treasure chest of minerals that early-day prospectors found, for all the gold and silver that was discovered was worth nothing if it could not be economically transported out of the mountains.
