A visit to the Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site, the living history museum of the Pikes Peak Region, allows visitors to experience the lives of the people who lived, worked, hunted, herded and raised families in this area from the 1700s to the early 20th century. Throughout the 220-acre site, costumed interpreters tell the stories and demonstrate work, tools and abilities of these people through four time periods. Be a part of history! Visit the:
-
1775-1835 American Indian Area
