Why this spot
1909-1913 gold camp, mill revivals to the 1940s
Gold camp near the Lucky Boy Mine, found by men repairing a stage road over the Wassuk Range, with about 200 people in 1909 and a post office until 1913. A costly mill built in 1923 ran less than three years, and later work lasted until wartime limits closed the mill in 1941.View source →
