Duck into the ornate Art Deco Washoe Theatre, a 1930s movie palace that survived when similar venues disappeared nationwide. The Copper Village Museum tells tales of mining fortunes and immigrant struggles in equal measure. After exploring downtown's historic buildings, head to nearby Georgetown Lake for fishing or Fairmont Hot Springs to soak in naturally heated pools.
