Book Description
Matt Lee - a young trapper and mountain man - and his five closest friends, after hearing a tale of lost Spanish gold and the legend La Caverna Del Oro told by an old mysterious mountain man, decided to search for the cave of riches located above timberline on Marble Mountain, Colorado. The five close friends were jovial with their good luck after locating the lost cavern of gold. It would not be long before they realized that the haunted La Caverna Del Oro was protected by a band of Ute Indian warriors whose sole purpose was to prevent anybody from taking the gold and releasing what lived in the depths of the ancient cave. Matt Lee who was the sole survivor of a bloody battle had now stepped over the edge into insanity as the rage and chaos of what lived within the cave became one within him. For the next two years, Matt Lee in his madness would became the Ute Indians' greatest enemy; they started calling him "Ghost." One by one the Ute tribes would send their mightiest warriors against the Ghost. Matt Lee was forever doomed to this fate as the Ute enemy Ghost until a fateful day on a remote pond in the Middle Park Basin of Colorado changed the course of his life once again. Matt Lee stepped back over into the land of the rational the day he rescued a young Ute Indian princess from a mountain lion attack. For the next thirty years, Matt Lee's forever love for his wife Walk With Ghost would keep the madness deep within his soul. Matt Lee and the love of his life just wanted to build their home and find sanctuary far from his haunted and bloody past in a hidden valley on Boreas Pass above the town of Como, Colorado - Redemption Valley. That would all change when Walk With Ghost was shot by a member of the Colorado 3rd U.S. Cavalry on the streets of Grand Lake, Colorado. Little did the U.S. Cavalry know that they had once again unleashed the legend known as "Ghost!" Follow this Kurt James western adventure of redemption and revenge of a man the Indians called "Ghost" as he battles Indians, racial hatred, mountain lions, avalanches, bounty hunters, and federal marshals in such towns and places as Grand Lake, Berthoud Pass, Guanella Pass, and Kenosha Pass of the Rocky Mountain frontier.

Book Description
In its heyday, Colorado had more than 175 ski areas operating on the slopes of the Rocky Mountains, and while many of those resorts have shut down, their runs still shelter secret stashes of snow. Pristine slopes await backcountry powder hounds out to discover these chutes and steeps, bunny hills and bumps. Chronicling the history of more than 36 of these "lost resorts," Powder Ghost Towns provides the beta for how to ski and board these classic runs today, with comprehensive information on trailheads, where to skin up, and the best descents. Coverage ranges from southern Wyoming's Medicine Bow Mountains to the Colorado-New Mexico border, including famous old resorts like Hidden Valley in Rocky Mountain National Park.

Book Description
Get your Rocky Mountain high on with creepy tales of demon dogs, pioneer phantoms, and Old West wraiths. Eerie tales have been part of the city’s history from the beginning: Pikes Peak and Cheyenne Mountain are the subjects of several spooky Native American legends, and Anasazi spirits are still seen at the ancient cliff dwellings outside town. In the Old North End neighborhood, the howls of hellhounds ring through the night, and visitors at the Cheyenne Canon Inn have spotted the spirit of Alex Riddle on the grounds for over a century. Henry Harkin has haunted Dead Mans’ Canyon since his gruesome murder in 1863, and Poor Bessie Bouton is said to linger on Cutler Mountain, hovering where her body was discovered more than a century ago. Ghost hunter and tour guide Stephanie Waters explores the stories behind “Little London’s” oldest and scariest tales. Includes photos!

Book Description
Throughout the development of the American West, prostitution grew and flourished within the mining camps, small towns, and cities of the nineteenth-century Rocky Mountains. Whether escaping a bad home life, lured by false advertising, or seeking to subsidize their income, thousands of women chose or were forced to enter an industry where they faced segregation and persecution, fines and jailing, and battled the hazards of disease, drug addiction, physical abuse, pregnancy, and abortion. They dreamed of escape through marriage or retirement, but more often found relief only in death. An integral part of western history, the stories of these women continue to fascinate readers and captivate the minds of historians today. Expanding on the research she did for Brothels, Bordellos, and Bad Girls (UNM Press), historian Jan MacKell moves beyond the mining towns of Colorado to explore the history of prostitution in the Rocky Mountain states of Arizona, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. Each state had its share of working girls and madams like Big Nose Kate or Calamity Jane who remain celebrities in the annals of history, but MacKell also includes the stories of lesser-known women whose role in this illicit trade nonetheless shaped our understanding of the American West.

Book Description
When Rocky Elmore joined the United States Border Patrol, he knew it would be a journey fraught with danger. But little did he know that the very real trails he walked night after night would soon lead him into surreal encounters from a different dimension. This was never more evident than when the ghost of a recently fallen fellow agent began to appear on top of the cliff from which he died. It marked the beginning of the end to one of the most bizarre series of events in the history of the U.S. Border Patrol. This collection of true stories provides a rare look into law enforcement that includes not only the routine nightly patrols of the USBP but also actual paranormal activity as it happened to the agents in the field. Readers will go on nightly patrols with the agents of the Brown Field Border Patrol Station, and will face their worst fears as they come face to face with smugglers, mountain lions, ghosts, and even a Sasquatch in this isolated no-man's land. OUT ON FOOT takes place in the mysterious Otay Mountains just east of San Diego, California. It is an emotional roller coaster ride that is not for the faint of heart.
