Description
Colorado's First Tourist
In the mid-eighteen hundreds, Anglo-Irish aristocrat Sir St. George Gore embarked on an expedition through the Rocky Mountains. His extravagant hunting party slaughtered thousands of animals during their tour through beautiful Colorado and left multiple landmarks bearing his name behind them. Gore Creek, Gore Pass, and Gore Range are just a few of the scenic vistas surrounding Vail, Colorado that testify to a visit from a man who was, in essence, just a tourist passing through. Today, the legitimacy of his legacy is often questioned, although the man himself remains largely a mystery.
Join investigative journalist John LaConte as he uncovers the real story of Sir St. George Gore, who left his name scattered across the Colorado landscape.
