Must have been a few guns and knives there too. I love this, I will stop by to pick up some Ammo and sugar. It's going to be a long winter.

Don't you love that you could get all of that in the same place? 😆

Very interesting and well made video. I've been through Fairplay many times but never heard of South Park City. Wikipedia tells me that it is the name of the museum in Fairplay. Ahha! Will definitely come visit next time i drive through.

It was 1849 not '59, hence the term miner 49'er.

Yup, though last I knew there was nothing there but empty land but that was some years ago.

It sure is! Though it's not anything like the cartoon, I'm afraid. South Park has been a "real place' since the 1840s. There are several thriving communities which have been here since the Colorado Gold rush in 1859, some even longer. It's one of the prettiest places in Colorado! The Utes used this area as summer hunting grounds for thousands of years before it was named South Park . :)
