crossing the San Luis valley
and in pushing their way up
the Rio Grande it was this
fearless band of pick, shovel

slowed on Wagon Wheel Gap
its name. The reason for using
the name Wagon Wheel Gap
was because there was found
in the narrow canon at that
point weather-beaten and
decaying wagon wheel of
ancient brand and vintage"
There was some speculation
among the "Argonauts" as to
how the wheel could possibly
get where it was found and
various theories were advanc-
ed by their several advocates.
But the consensus of opinion
among the old-timers was tina,
the wheel had been left there
by what has since been called
the "ill-fated Fremont en-
ploration party of ls4S-49."

from the subject in hand to
say that Charley Goodwin, AL

the discoveries and locators of
the famous Ute and Ulay

in Hinsdale county, and Hem

was named to honor the old
Squire.

treme, indeed, to such an eX-
tent are they beautiful that
one for the moment is prone
to forget the sordid things of
earth while gazing in admira-
tion upon the wondrous work
of the Great Architect. The
writer will not venture a de-
scription of Santa Maria
Lake in detail because the pen
that assumes the task must
not be slow nor dull. The
identity of the individual who
named the lake is a secret that
neither Santa Maria" nor the
past will divulge.
Pagosa Peak
The "Pagosa Peak" is a
prominent mountain rising in
the Conejos range and un-
doubtedly inherited its name
from the Pagosa Hot Springs
which We're known among the
Indians as Great Medicine
Waters"
Rio Piedra
The Rio Piedra" rises in
the San Juan mountains, flows
south and empties into the Rio
San Juan. The Spanish word
"piedra" means in English,
rock or rocky, and l am free
to say that the Mexican who
named the Rio Piedra was
sure of his premises and also
could certainly see straight.
San Juan Mountains
The San Juan mountains are
too generally known to re-
quire location or description
in this article and | will mere
ly add that the Spanish Don
who christened them San Juan
recognized that they were too
great and too grand to be
named after any of the minor
saints.

In 1872, the mining towns in
the northern part of the state
were greatly stirred by reports
of the discovery of veins rich
in gold and silver in what
was then known as the San
Juan country" and early in the
following year there was a
mad stampede of prospectors
all striving to be first to reach
the new Eldorado. SO far as
roads were concerned the reg
ion to be traversed was a
trackless wilderness and the
journey must needs be made
by saddle and pack animals
over rought ground and in in
dian trails. But the early San
Juaners were old pioneer pros
pectors who laughed at danger
and scorned hardships. After

tereStlngly IN the Cfeede Can
die of last week concerning the
names and some historical
facts of a number of places
well known to San Luis valley
people as follows:
Creede Mining Camp
The mining camp and City
of Creede, Colo, were so
named in honor of N. C..
Creede, the discOverer and To-
Gator of the Holy Moses"
mineral bearing vein and mine
of the same explanatory name.
To satisfy and help allay
consuming curiosity | once ask
ed Nick c. Creede why he used
such an unusual name on a
location stake to designated a
mining claim? The answer was
as follows: "The first piece of
blossom quartz broken from
the vein was so rich in silver
that / involuntary exclaimed
Holy Moses, and a little later
in writing the location the
name still stuck in my memory
and l used it." The name
Holy Moses" still sticks to
the vein, so also, does it stick
in the records of Saguache
county, from which it was
transcribed to the records of
Mineral county, where it will,
no doubt, continue to stick un-
til Mineral county and Creede
are buried in oblivion. About
two years after the discovery
of the Holy Moses" vein, or
to be more exact, in the sum-
mer of 1891, Creede staked a
mining claim he forsook the
Great Lawgiver of Israel"
and called it THE Amethyst"
Associated with Creede in the
Amethyst as co-partners were
D. H. Moffat, Eben Smith,
Capt. l.. E. Campbell and S. j.
Smith, to whom he later sold
his interest and with the pro-
ceeds of the sale purchased a
beautiful home in California.
where he lived in quiet con-
tentment until his death, few
years later.
In passing III say that
Creede was not the discOverer
of the big Vein" as many are
led to believe, nor does that
distinction rest with the loca-
tors of the Last Chance be-
cause as a matter of fact. the
vein was found and located in
the year 1885 by John c. Nc
Kinzie, James Wilson and
John Burnett.
The Cochetope
Cochetopa Creek rises in the
Cochetopa hills which are a
part of the Rocky range and
form the northern boundary
of the San Luis valley. 1t can
not be determined with abso-
lutte certainty when, why and
by whom the name Cochetopa
was bestowed on the noun
tains and stream, as tradition
and written history alike are
silent on the subject. The word
Cochetopa is said to be of In
dian origin and ! suggest that
the burden of responsibility
be allowed to rest upon the
shoulders-or tonXue-of the
Saguache tribe of Ute Indians.
In 1853. Congress in giving in
Gunnison makes mention of
structions to Capt. John w.
"Cochetopa or some other elig-
ible pass" which fact goes to
show that the name must have
been familiar to the early trap
pcrs and explorers.
