First Oil Well in Colorado
In 1880, a grain miller named Gabriel Bowen filed a claim to an oil spring along Fourmile Creek on the Shelf Road route. Within two years, A.M. Cassidy and his partners drilled Colorado's first oil well on this site. This discovery led to the Florence Oil Field in 1881, which transformed Florence into a major oil production and refining center.
One of Colorado's First Five Byways
The Gold Belt Tour was designated as one of Colorado's first five Scenic and Historic Byways in 1989, and became a National Scenic Byway in 2000. The byway spans 131 miles and connects five communities across two counties. The elevation along the route changes dramatically from 5,500 to 9,500 feet, offering diverse ecosystems and wildlife viewing.
