It has been a while since I posted or chatted. I've appreciated the mining explanations I received in the past and hope someone can help me with my latest request.
On Saturday, I am giving a presentation at the Pikes Peak Regional History Symposium. The theme is Rush To The Rockies: The 1859 Pikes Peak or Bust Gold Rush. For more information on the symposium you can visit this link http://ppld.org/SpecialCollections/2009Symposium/default.asp I am talking about the Cash Creek Miners. This morning as I'm fine-tuning my PowerPoint Presentation, I thought it would be great to have a photograph of the Cache Creek Ditch built in 1861-1862 that brought water from Lake Creek to Cache Creek. I wondered if any of you who have prospected in the Cache Creek area might have taken a picture? Or if you might know of anyone who has a picture? I've been to Cache Creek a couple of times, but never went past the mining camp. Thank you for your help. If you have a photo, you can e-mail it to me at gcgresham@msn.com I will give credit to the photographer on the PowerPoint slide. Gayle Gresham http://ColoradoReflections.blogspot.com |

QUOTE (russau @ Jun 5 2009, 06:21 AM)  Gayle good luck in your presentation. Thanks, Russau! I went to a workshop and reception for the presenters today. I'm less nervous now, but maybe I'm just too exhausted to be nervous! It was fun to talk to others with the same interest in Colorado mining history. And more people who know where Cache Creek is!
