Skaguay Power Plant

In this adventure Mickey, Liz, and I hike to the abandoned Skaguay power plant located in a remote canyon near Victor Colorado. In hind site I would not take a dog on this hike as the rock scrambling and water crossings proved a big challenge even for the nimble Mickey and I ended up having to climb and carry him through several sections.
The Power Plant began operation in 1901 and continued operating until 1965 when the Gillette dam failed and caused 2 miles of dirt, moss & silt to plug the wooden pipeline. In its day, the Power Plant site boasted housing, a laundry, a commissary, a cookhouse and a saloon, dance hall and gaming room.
