This is a neat story I thought everyone would enjoy.......
The tale tells of how not only the silver was discovered in the Creed area, but pay special attention to how the Last Chance mine got it's name.  Another chance for the Last Chance Mine-www.cozine.com Enjoy CP -------------------- CP-Owner/Administrator

No surprise. If you saw the assay reports I saw on some of the mines in that region, you'd be astounded! Likewise for the Pitkin/Cold Creek area.

If they were they'd have eaten the snake instead of the apple and we'd still be in heaven.... |
