Heavy folds, a few holes at intersections. Good condition. William Greeneberry Russell, a miner from the gold fields of northern Georgia, had come to the vicinity of present-day Denver, then part of western Kansas Territory, in 1858. Russell discovered placer gold deposits in June 1859 in the valley that was soon named Russell Gulch in his honor.

Russell Gulch is about two miles from present day Central City.
