X-WR-CALDESC:In the shadow of the Continental Divide and hidden from the pu
 blic eye for decades\, Tarryall Valley showcases Colorado’s first stampede
  from her front range during the gold rush of 1859. Exhibiting a lush time
  capsule of that lucrative gold strike\, the valley has over the past ten 
 years been the focus of Mark Hanson’s camera and historical research. His 
 field exploration covers a tight peak-to-valley grid\, encompassing the mi
 ning district’s 18 square miles from Como\, Colorado to the Continental Di
 vide and Boreas Pass. Mark documents a century-long quest for Tarryall’s e
 lusive mother lode and the rich golden bounty found amongst her glacially-
 bulldozed placers. Here are sheltered more than 150 teetering cabins\, ove
 r 850 prospect pits and mines\, 20 miles of flumes and ditches\, five rema
 ining mill sites\, bygone blacksmith shops\, and the hopes and dreams of t
 housands of prospectors. Tarryall held the finest gold in the state\, and 
 in today’s dollars\, well over $300\,000\,000 was doggedly harvested acros
 s a span of 120 years.\n\nThrough the eyes of a present-day resident and c
 laim-holding geologist\, peer into the pans of early prospectors and open 
 anxious telegrams from international financiers. Meet five miners whose de
 tailed biographies illustrate a diverse parade of explorers from gold farm
 ers to silver magnates. From German immigrants\, to Civil War veterans\, t
 o the money launderers of Tammany Hall\, these characters typify many of t
 he nation’s 19th century gold rushes. Published early in 2025\, “Tarryall 
 Gold” represents a microcosm of hundreds of valleys across the west. Exhib
 iting over 220 stunning photos\, maps\, letters\, and telegrams\, this boo
 k documents Tarryall’s mining lore amidst heavily forested hillsides and d
 eep gulches of yesterday and today. Throughout\, a fascinating picture eme
 rges of the men\, the conflicts\, the fortunes and the disappointments whi
 ch birthed a state and built the west.
