Ocean Bath, Idaho Springs

1873-1877

Hot springs

Photograph (stereoview) of the Ocean Bath House in Idaho Springs, Colorado. Photographed and published by W. G. Chamberlain, labeled Colorado Mountain Scenery on the front. The back indicates it is part of series titled "Idaho, Fall River, and Chicago Lakes" (unnumbered) and includes a very lengthy description of Idaho Springs, the hot springs and mineralology, and areas to the south. Date of 1873 is penciled on the back, but date is likely 1873-1877 based on statement that Idaho Springs is reachable by the Colorado Central Railroad (could mean to Floyd Hill), as well as 1877 being the final year Chamberlain worked at Larimer and 15th.
