Since 1883, Beaver Creek has attracted adventurous individuals. Those folks homesteaded and farmed or ranched. The allure of precious minerals brought miners to the valley, and many stayed after the illusion of striking it rich began to fade.
Two men credited with developing the Vail ski area set their sights on the Beaver Creek drainage for a new ski resort. Ranching flourished for a few families until the early 1970s. Political battles over permits stretched from Denver to Washington, DC.
In addition, environmental issues burgeoning in the early 1970s added another layer of complexity to the proposed ski area. Dark days were looming as interest rates hit 18 percent and a recession hit the national economy. A silver lining in all the turmoil at the fledgling resort occurred when former president Gerald R.
Ford bought one of the first residential lots, making Beaver Creek his address.
