Gold Country Illusions and Blue River Claims
The writer describes mining camps along the Swan River and Blue River, noting rich gulches American Georgia and Humbug, with Georgia the richest. He details Blaed prospects at Niger gulch, a failed venture, and a journey from Breckenridge toward Arkansas headwaters where snow and flowers coexist. The piece criticizes sensational mining press, warns most ventures lack payoff, mentions vigilante activity near Denver, and concludes mining requires capital and prudence before moving west.
