Georgetown
is a secluded mountain town, located only 45 minutes from the Denver International Airport, and about 13 miles to the Loveland Ski Area. You can't see Georgetown from the highway, so look for the Georgetown Exit 228 from Interstate 70, then turn right at the four-way stop and this road will take you into the town. This historic community offers a variety of restaurants and lodging facilities, and has great shopping on Sixth Street in the National Historic Landmark District. Georgetown is nestled between some of the most spectacular mountain peaks in the state, and has easy access to endless hiking and biking trails, ski slopes, cross country skiing, streams and lakes to fish, raft, canoe and kayak. It's only 20-50 minutes to the world class ski resorts at Vail, Breckenridge, Keystone and Copper Mountain. Other attractions include the Georgetown Loop Historic Railroad, Hamill House, the Hotel de Paris Museum and the Scenic Byway Guanella Pass. Two of the traditional family events in Georgetown include the European Village Style Christmas Market held the first two weeks of December, and a special Fourth of July Celebration with an old-fashioned parade, 5-K race, barbecue in the park and fireworks over the mountain.

Georgetown Weather & Climate
|
|
|
|
Central Colorado has a more complex climate than most states in the United States. The valleys are classified as a semi-arid, continental climate, which becomes a mountain or alpine climate at higher elevations. Humid microclimates may also exist in some places. Abundant sunshine and low humidity is typical in all areas. Summers are mild to warm, and thunderstorms can cause a sudden drop in temperature. Winters are cold and snowy, especially in the higher elevations of the Rocky Mountains. Solar radiation penetrates the thin atmosphere high in the mountains, which results in very pleasant temperatures during the winter. This is why skiers are often pictured in very light clothing, even though they're surrounded by snow.
