  • Historical Background Study, Curecanti Recreation Area, Colorado
    •••••a••• ••••a••••aa•a COLORADO Historical Background Study By BENJAMIN LEVY DIVISION OF HISTORY Office of Areheology and Historic Preservation October 15, 1968 National Park Service B&WScans U.S. Department of the Interior ..S·fb·~~ FOREIDRD The object of th.is study is to provide the historical data necessary :fOJ: the proper development of a Master Plan for Curecanti Rec:ceation Area, Colorado. This study, authorized by Resource Study Proposal (RSP) CURE-H-1, seeks to identi:fy historical resources and historic sites lo­ cated within or closely associated with the recreation area. Such an undertaking will enable master planning teams to consider the use o:f historical data in interpre­ tive and development programs and provide £or the protection 0£ historic sites and structures. Ideally, thE! background study ought to precede the master plan team's field investigation. The urgency 0£ the Curecanti plan r1equired this investigation to be undertaken immediately at the beginning of the current :fiscal year and compelled it to be done while the team was in the field. Hopefully, this report will have found its way into the team's hands prior to their completion report. This report does not pretend to be a detailed or de­ £ini tive study of the history 0£ the Curecanti area. The urgency of the c:all of this document and the limited time assigned for its preparation permit little more than the examination of secondary sources, although little i published mateI'ial exists on the history ox that stretch of the Gunnison River from Montrose to Gunnison city.

NOEL But hark! down this once lone valley, You can hear the thundering tread, Of the iron horse advancing, And rushing with firey breath - To gain this goal of welcome; This gem of our mountain land; Bringing the wealth of the nations, And laying them in our hands. Then hail, all hail to its coming, Let the welkin loudlo ring With three times three for the D.P.R., And our Denver "Railroad Kings."* When gold was discovered in Colorado in the 1850s, a town of canvas and wood sprang up among the cottonwood trees where Cherry Creek flows into the South Platte River. Infant Denver City attracted hopeful emigrants from throughout the United States.

One gold seeker, Libeus Barney, wrote home to the Bennington (Vermont) Banner on July 12, 1859, that "in Denver City they behold in the future another San Francisco, and along the val- •The poem is from the Denver Cowrado Tribune, .Tune 22, 1870. 92 THE COLORADO MAGAZINE L/2 1973 All Hail the Denver Pacific: Denver's First Railroad 93 ley of Clear Creek they seem to witness the uprising of a sec­ did no.t return to the East but sought out the mining towns west ond Sacramento."1 of the Queen City.
