You are looking out at the Gregory Diggings where the first gold lode discovery was made in 1859. John H Gregory from Georgia learned from his father that there must be a source to the gold being found in Cherry Creek area of present day Denver. He discovered the first gold lode in Colorado. Today July 4, 2021 a small hail storm came through and I decided to capture it on video. The elevation is 8,292 here in the front range. If you like gold mining history then please visit my webpage to view still images of Central City and Black Hawk Colorado.
