Classic Colorado

The old Crystal Mill is one of the most picturesque scenes in all of Colorado, and of course, one of the most photographed. The mill is located about 6 miles out of Marble along the Crystal River on a four-wheel drive road just before the ghost town of Crystal. The mill, constructed in 1893, harnessed the river to power the air compressor housed inside. To learn more about the mill and the town of Crystal go to www.marbletourismassociation.org.
