In this week’s episode The Mystics dig up Colorado’s wildest legends and chase them straight into the mountains as they unravel not one, not two, but three pieces of high-altitude weirdness 👻 Starting in the crumbling remains of Buckskin Joe, where the legend of Silver Heels still lingers in the mountain air 👠 The mysterious woman in shining shoes who captivated a rough-and-tumble mining camp and then vanished after a devastating smallpox outbreak. Was she a selfless heroine? A myth polished by time? Or something a little more ethereal? 🧚🏻 Buckskin Joe, Colorado is also home to J. Dawson Hidgepath. A man whose skeleton allegedly refused to stay buried 🦴 As if that wasn’t enough mountain madness, we climb higher to Marshall Pass 🚂 and the chilling legend of the Phantom Train, a ghostly locomotive said to have chased a terrified engineer through the snowy Continental Divide before vanishing into thin air. Buckle up for some wild tales in Train Wreck Energy.
