The Lodge is at the junction of Colorado Highways 5 (Mount Evans Highway) and 103 (Squaw Pass Road). Squaw Pass Road is a loop that extends from Idaho Springs to Bergen Park. The easiest and shortest access to the Lodge is usually out of Idaho Springs on Highway 103.
The Smasher is immediately to your left, just inside the Lodge entrance.
The single design in this machine is of a Mountain Goat, an animal often seen in this area. The rolled images were very good on copper pennies.
