Geocache Description:

Part of a series of caches we are placing in Goldfield, NV. We will be regurgitating some interesting facts about this town and hiding some caches to boot. Hope you enjoy!

The boom years in Goldfield ran from 1905 through 1910. Starting with the discovery of gold in the area in 1902, by 1903 a tent camp of twenty people, and by 1907 grew to be the largest city in Nevada with a population of over 20,000 people. Goldfield had all the amenities of any large city, with fancy restaurants, hotels, athletic clubs, church and social groups of every kind, theaters, shopping, sporting events, unions, all the general businesses of the day, casinos, red light district, gold, high grading, and all the hopes of prosperity any individual would want to find.
