Town of Minturn

Town of Minturn

Just two miles south of I-70, and only 10 minutes from Vail, Minturn was originally developed as railroad town in the late 1800s. Today, Minturn’s quaint galleries and antique shops offer a peek at the past while the town bustles with contemporary business activity and attractions.

One of the most popular events in the community is the Minturn Farmer’s Market, which runs weekly during the summer and annually hosts more than 5,000 visitors.

Celebrating Community Partnerships

Hear from Alpine Bank regional president Michael Brown on why he's joyfully celebrating 35 years with the company AND why he celebrates community partnerships like the one with Roundup River Ranch, which is celebrating its 20th year. Cathy Ethington joins Mike to give an overview of RRR, including its free summer and family camp experiences to children with life-altering diagnoses.
